Ballet Beautiful, Bowers, Mary Helen, 250 pages
This nonfiction work is a combination of lifestyle, exercise and diet written by a former ballerina. The book covers multiple topics including self image and confidence. It moves on to an exercise routine based on ballet conditioning. Most of this takes place on a mat, no barre needed. Finally Mary Helen covers diet in a pretty sensible way. Don't let yourself be hungry, but learn to make good choices when you do eat. I used the book in combination with a companion DVD of the exercises. The book cover more exercises than the DVD. I found it a plus that the exercises are very repetitive and easy to remember. They can be done while listening to music or watching TV without the need for the DVD.
