Notes:

▪ Music is ok, kind of generic but good beat

▪ There is nothing wrong with this workout but it does not offer anything unique - every move in it is done better in some other iballet workout

▪ There is quite a bit of ab work (about 17 min) and little lower body floor work (only 6 min)

▪ I don’t enjoy the stretching done at the wall (moving close to the wall and away from it to get into position is annoying)
