While the difference between a jete and a releve may be obvious to the aficionado, it's less clear when you're trying to remember which is which in a room of people on a Saturday morning-- without looking foolish. This ballet-inspired full-body workout, taught by former prima ballerina Maria Teresa del Real at her Miami-based studio, uses resistance bands and medicine balls. Think yoga skills will make this a cinch? You'll be sorely aware of the core differences. Barrebox.com
