Getting fit is really a matter of motivation, right? That's why Ellen created EllenBarrettLive, a series of workouts shot in her actual studio space, with her real class regulars, and in one long take - all of which helps create authentic energy, intimacy and - the big M - Motivation! Grace & Gusto, the second release in Ellen's Live series, is an all-in-one barefoot workout that fuses Pilates and ballet basics. It feels so good, you won't realize how hard you worked until the day after! The 45-minute workout starts with an easy dancer warm up that segues into 40-minutes of graceful cardio. The last 5-minutes of mat work flatten the belly and firm the upper arms. If you're looking for a modern way to workout - one that gives energy rather than zaps it - the search is over with EllenBarrettLive: Grace & Gusto

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Ellen Exercise video yet, December 31, 2011
By Lynne Redwood "Bead Fixer" (parker, CO USA)
This review is from: Grace and Gusto (DVD)
I love this workout. It is fantastic, smooth and elegant. It doesn' t feel like anything is overdone, it works arms, and core, legs and butt. I know I need all the arm work I can get. It is something I think most women overlook. l have done almost all of Ellen's video workouts and this is the Best one yet. It is smooth and subtle, and with good cardio. Enough variety in moves to keep you alert and working, you won't get bored. I get bored when there is too many reps of one move, unless it is an "oasis". Her word. I think every workout needs little spots to catch your breath, thus oasis. I have knee and back problems, so I frequently switch between all of her videos, depending on what I think my body needs. Her workouts really work. I have lost weight, toned up, and I feel better. My knees don't hurt as much because she has helped me built up muscles to help support them( I used to run alot when I was younger), my back hurts less, because she works on the whole core, not just abs but the back for strength to offset ab work. I love the ballet aspect to all her workouts, I took ballet for many years and have found comfort in doing something familiar, and her videos also make you feel like you're with her in the Studio. I can't wait for the next one, it seems that each one gets better. Thanks Ellen.
