The Dailey Method

As anyone who is a "Dancing with the Stars" fan has noticed, dance provides a full-body workout, kicking your metabolism into over-drive and toning up even those tough to tone places. Summer is just around the corner, in fact, (fingers crossed) with the arrival of the sunshine and 80 degree weather today, it might already be here. In order to enjoy all of those summer cook-outs, graduation parties, and weddings without any worry about our waistlines, we would like to introduce another option for your daily workout: The Dailey Method.

Although currently, studios are limited to Arizona, California, Illinois, and Nevada, this combination of yoga, pilates, and ballet movements, is now available as a DVD, "No Excuses". The DVD features an intro from founder Jill Dailey and two classes touted to target the entire body and provide "amazing results."

I tried my first Dailey Method class while visiting a friend in Berkeley, California last fall and I was both obsessed and depressed...because I instantly fell in love with this workout and there aren't any studios on the East Coast, let alone near where I live in Connecticut!!!! You best believe that I have already ordered my DVD and am anxiously awaiting its arrival!!! Has anyone already tried one of these classes? Let us know what you think in the comments section!!!
