Aerobics or Ballet?

What works magic on body more Aerobics or Ballet?

Aerobics or Ballet?soap opera

i do aerobics and i do ballet. I started both sort of recently but im a natural dancer (not to compliment myself) i have good flexibility for a guy. Actually today i just had a 7 hour aerobics workshop for nationals which im competing in this year. and then i had ballet after. Ballet is not as heart racing as aerobics at lower grades but when u get into higher grades it really works your legs particularly. Ballet teaches you grace, flexibility, balance and its more flowing.

Aerobics is more like jazz/gymnastics with lots of jumps(split jumps, straddle jumps, pike jumps, tuck jumps, wolf jumps which is 1 leg in pike and one in tuck)

leaps(jetes which is a step ball change then split jump, switch jetes or russians which is step ball chance split jump except the leg infront swings to the back so u change splits i mid air and also forwardsplit-straddle jumps)

pushups (like 1 handed pushups, tricep hinges, bicep pushups, ect ect)

and also jumps to floor (straddle jump and land in pushup also known as a shushunova. tuck jump into pushup ect) and u also do things like lifts which is where u hold urself in straddle and then push up with your hands until feet and legs are off the ground, u also do the same for pike. and also planches.

For me at this moment i would say aerobics works me more but i love dance. They both compliment each other. if your looking for burning calories and getting fitter and ripping out some pretty rad tricks i would say aerobics but if your looking for grace, style, beauty and flow i would say Ballet

Hope i helped!

Well, they both are beneficial!

Aerobics is more robotic feeling, and ballet lets you express yourself through movement while you burn those calories!

You build muscle and resistance in both.

Ballet works on balance, focus, and stamina.

Aerobics builds muscle, stamina, and ocassionally balance.

Both would be great though! I'm a dancer and we have a specified class to work out and stay fit! Working out is great for you physically, emotionally, and mentally!

=D
Ballet. it also gives you rhythm.
Not sure exactly what you mean by magic.

One thing to note is that while taking ballet should slowly increase ones flexibility over time, and you can gain some strength and balance over time; taking an actual ballet class is NOT very aerobic. One will not burn a lot of calories as a ballet class has a lot of standing around in between combination. The teacher will give or demonstrate what steps, movements, and counts are. They will also stop to give correction or to talk to the whole class. The first half of class is done at the barre and most of those exercise are not overly long or taxing. Then the fist part of center is more about slowing developing the balance. It is not until the last 25% of a class where ones starts to do some jumps and move across the room. And even those combinations are done in small groups so you stand around for a little while waiting for your next turn. In addition, most ballet schools do not have a lot of lower level ballet classes for students every day.

Even at the highest levels of ballet class the format and structure is the same. Most professional ballet dancers are skinny because they have to be in order to keep their job. It also helps that they spend their entire day in classes and rehearsals; up to 9 hours a day.

So if you are looking to get your body in shape quickly, a balanced routine of aerobics class several times a week (3-5) will probably get you there more quickly than ballet classes.
i do ballet and i love it!!
Ballet definitley because it not only gives you a toned body but it teaches you how to discipline your body and it also works your mind
i do both. aerobics 2 keep my weight...yadda yadda.. in check. n i do ballet for fun..

basically, aerobics is a form of exercise. meaning its aim is 2 improve your heart etc. here, u'll be aiming 2 sweat a lot...

ballet is to express yourself, its a soulful form of art. it improves your poise and makes u you look graceful..

so...if u can, tk up both...u'll nv regret it
