So, today, while surfing the internet (instead of doing my 1.5 hours of yoga) I came across an article for the ballerina who trained Natalie Portman for her role in Black Swan, for which she has won a Golden Globe and a Critic's Choice Award both for Best Actress. If you don't already know, Black Swan was one of my most anticipated movies, and is by far one of my favorites, if only for the dancing part. So, as you can imagine, when I came across this article, I simply couldn't pass it up. I then linked to the website for Ballet Beautiful, where I found out about the live, online classes that Mary Helen Bowers offers there. I have linked to her Facebook page, (here) and have found out that they will soon be releasing videos for Ballet Beautiful, which is great, considering that the live classes are $40 and $25 for the 1 hour and 30 minute classes, respectively. Now, in all honesty, $40 a class is not that much for lessons from a world-class ballerina, but I simply don't have that kind of money to throw around - who does, these days? So I am waiting anxiously for the videos to be released, but I am unsure if they are going to be DVD releases or if they will be available for purchase as a download. Either way, I am hoping that when they come out, I can afford to buy them, because God knows there isn't much I wouldn't do to have my ballerina body back from high school.
