conditioning for ballet?


 Powered by Max Banner Ads 

I’m 15 years old, and have taken a variety of dance classes before but i’ve always had a calling for ballet. I have a weight loss program already, and i want to start taking classes over the summer(so i have some time to get ready). I was wondering if anyone had any advice on ballet conditioning, ex:
-turn outs
-endurance
-flexibility
-general technique
-fastest way to reach pointe
-health(weight, eating habits, exercise habits etc.)
*on fitness level and flexibility i’m average
thank you all for your help!

???will i still LOSE weight by doing this routine????

i go to snap fitness for about hour and a half each day..sometimes every other day.

first day-first i jog/walk 2 miles about 30 min if im walking most of it..
..then do the stairstepper for about 20 minutes
…then i do the leg exercises with the machines 2 diff machines..2 sets of 10
..then i do a line of the arm machines that work each part..2 sets of 10 for each machine..like 4 machines..
..then i do some ab stuff and calf lifts.

2nd day..i dont do as much..resting the muscle groups.
i still do the jog/walk 2 miles..but i do the programs that incline and pick up the speed..so it burns more..
then 20 minutes on the stair climber.

i have a habit of eaching chips and stuff..would i still lose weight even if i ate SOME chips more than twice a week.. im not using all my daily calories either..
i burn about 400 alone in the gym..i dont think its that much..
ive lost 5 pounds but im wondering if i exercise ill lose weight no matter what? as long as im not eating real bad.

Masters degree that I can work abroad?

I am graduating may 2011 with my bachelors in Psychology and Spanish. I am wanting to work abroad, preferbly in Latin America and am not sure if I can do anything with these degrees, so I was looking for masters degree that would perhaps open up more options.

I enjoy helping people and working with them. I enjoy doing business type work and love exercise and health and fitness.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good masters program that may interest me that I can study abroad doing it or work abroad after I finish?

Thanks!!!!

Plan to lose 20 pounds..is this enough?

I am 1.60m(5.3feet), 80 kg (178 pounds) and intend to work out 4 times a week…15 minutes (i don’t have much time) with the “Yourself fitness” program on the computer…its REALLY good and fun! It lets me do all kinds of exercises (from cardio to flexibility) and it motivates me!!
I am also reducing my calorie intake (well i’m trying) :)

Question: With this plan will I be able to allow me to lose 20 pounds (10 kgs) by the 14 the of February? If not what sould i do?

Thank you so much for your help!

P.S I gained 20 pounds on the pill and I changed pills…now im trying to lose the weight i got with the other pill for a special occasion :)
