### 3/5 — Great workouts! But app is not reliable.

*2025-02-12, version 9.4*

Love the workouts! However the app is constantly crashing, and the website says the server is down a LOT.  Very frustrating after spending all that money on a one year subscription.

### 2/5 — Crashing app

*2025-01-03*

Love the workouts and the app, but it hasn’t been working for a while with the app crashing upon opening.

### 2/5 — The app ruins the experience

*2024-12-12*

The workouts are so good but the app is so glitchy that it’s become impossible to use - it crashes constantly, the calendar never works, the workouts don’t load, the sounds and timers don’t work properly if you can get the workout to open… it’s a shame because the training programs are really good but I just can’t spend 15 minutes at the gym waiting for the app to open.

### 3/5 — Great workouts, but needs to be updated

*2024-05-27*

I use this app faithfully, but I’m hoping that there will be an update here soon. The workouts are great, but it does glitch a lot. It would also be awesome if you could play your own music while using it.

### 2/5 — Difficult to follow

*2023-11-23*

App needs work - I love the idea of these kinds of workouts especially as a former dancer who doesn’t relate to other programs 

The biggest issue I have is that I don’t know what the next exercise is until it’s already started, so I’ve lost time. There definitely needs to be a preview while you’re resting so you can watch and figure out what’s going on, either get up or get on the floor, grab equipment, etc. 

It’s also difficult to see what’s going on on the app- it would be great if you could flip it to be landscape to fill the whole screen, and for the instructor to do the whole set with you so it doesn’t just repeat itself- I couldn’t tell that the chest press wasn’t supposed to be a crunch because she kept laying down in the video. 

It’s just not an intuitive app and makes me want to find other places that have dancer-targeted exercises.

### 2/5 — Want to give a try!

*2023-09-14*

Really like the idea of these work outs. Unfortunately unable to get past the choice of subscription in the app. I choose my subscription choice and it refuses to take me into the app to try the workouts.

### 2/5 — Please fix!😭 I love your workouts

*2023-06-27*

I’m not able to even get past the payment option because the app is frozen. This is the third time I’ve tried to get it to work this month. 
I really want to use this app your workouts are the best!

### 3/5 — Glitches and outdated

*2022-05-13*

The workouts here are really good (I do wish they had a few more from Louise that are 30min like Lean & Strong or Weight Loss), but the app is just not where it should be for 2022. You should be able to leave the app and still have a video playing on the side of your screen; you should be able to listen to music with the app open; you should be able to do a workout without having so many glitches in video and audio (sometimes you start, and no image shows up at all - it’s just audio; or you start and there’s a 7 second delay for each exercise). The content is really quite good - they just need better app developers, frankly. This is a paid service and it should be a higher level product.

### 3/5 — It’s great! But the app needs work

*2022-04-10*

I love this app, the workouts, the different trainers and the layout but it’s so hard to use it consistently because there’s so many issues that interrupt the work out flow. 

The main two issues ive experienced are the calendar and the audio. I will be in the middle of a workout and the audio will stop for no reason whatsoever. I ended up doing one move for over a minute because the audio just stopped and the routine/course went on without me 😂 which means I have to constantly look at the app if I want to stay on course. Which is doable but having audio cues is one of the main reasons I like to use an app for exercising. 

The other issue I experienced is with the calendar, I signed up for a month long work out program and after a couple days of doing it the whole thing disappeared from the calendar 🤷🏻‍♀️ any progress tracking I had is out the window!

I end up pre paying for a 3 month app subscription when I never end up using the app because the app functionality isn’t there. Hate to say it but I will have to cancel unless there are updates. 

Please fix! Would love to actually enjoy and get to use this app on a consistent basis.

### 3/5 — Great workouts, but missing elements

*2021-12-28, version 9*

Love this, the concept, the workouts, the trainers. All of it is great but needs some updates. 

1) music- they really need a way to integrate your music with it. If you open Spotify or another music ap, the TLB ap closes and does not work together. It’s really annoying as most of the workouts have no music. 

2) super buggy. Sometimes I’ll get to a specific activity and the whole ap closes and i have to restart the workout, and once I get back to that stretch/activity, the same thing happens. You can’t skip it either it just closes and the whole workout won’t continue. It’s usually the stretching routines.

3) need a process or “check” mark system. This is little but I hate that I don’t get an accomplishment or at least a “check mark” next to workouts I’ve completed when I’m doing their programs. The work outs end, and the end. No progress reports 😑 

It’s a start though! I think for ballerinas it’s great and exactly what I want, just wish it had the professionalism of some other workout apps and programs.

### 3/5 — App keeps crashing

*2021-12-21, version 8*

In the last week the app has crashed constantly. Sometimes as I try to open a workout, other times it can’t get past a certain point in a workout.

### 3/5 — Great exercises, no music

*2021-12-20*

Love the programs but wish there were a way to integrate playlists/any type of music

### 3/5 — Here for the dance workouts

*2021-11-15, version 8*

Found this app through the YouTube channel. Mainly here for the content because I’m a dancer, but the app itself needs a good deal of work. It’s a bit choppy and missing some key features like the option to hear more detailed explanations of each workout, and an option to play music from within the app (not from another music app). Looking forward to technical improvements!

### 3/5 — Can’t sign up

*2021-08-17*

The sign up button doesn’t work so I can’t use the app

### 1/5 — Can’t Get Past Sign-Up

*2021-03-21*

I want to use the app, but when I hit “Sign Up” after filling out the new account information, nothing happens!!

### 1/5 — Stuck at sign up 😢

*2021-03-14*

I can’t get pass the sign up screen! All the info is entered but the sign up button does not work. Please fix!

### 1/5 — Terrible!

*2025-04-26, version 9.4*

I can’t even press the not now button when it shows you the payment option, it’s like it’s wanting you to pay. Ridiculous

### 1/5 — Never works

*2025-01-28, version 9.4*

This app never works. You can’t log in, you can’t cancel your account. It’s terrible

### 1/5 — Won’t let you cancel your subscription

*2025-01-24, version 9.4*

I have sent multiple emails, dms, and tried to contact support in multiple ways. I haven’t used the app in months and I ended up having to cancel and reset my debit card to avoid being charged again. 
I tried to reset my password (the reset email never comes). And literally sent 10 emails to try to cancel my subscription. 
Literally such an annoying experience.

### 1/5 — Absolutely Dreadful

*2025-01-12, version 9.4*

The app does not work. The owner does not respond to email about her companion  website. Her website is unusable because it will not send verification codes yet asks for them. She has a successful YouTube channel and that is where her effort goes. Too bad. I wanted to give her my money and use this app!!!

### 1/5 — I wanted it to work

*2024-12-26, version 9.4*

I watch the TLB videos on YouTube and they are so awesome, so I thought I would try the app. But once I downloaded it, it kept crashing over and over. I was barely able to create an account and then subscribe to the free trial. Once I had done that, it wouldn’t even let me access the menu or the videos or anything! It just kept freezing up and crashing. I even tried deleting the app and reinstalling it. Still nothing. I was so disappointed because I wanted this app to work. I love the idea and I’m sure it would be even better if they would fix whatever kind of bugs it may have. I hope it can be fixed so I can try it again someday! 😊

### 1/5 — Trash app for user interface. So buggy

*2023-11-04*

If you want to start the 7 day trial its not made possible by the app interface. You click anything other than monthly payments, i.e the quarterly (28.99)or yearly payments (89.99)and the app is smooth, so strange almost like it’s purposeful. It immediately crashes and doesn’t allow you to see any content at all after log in. Im using this on a new iPhone 11 for context. In comparison to the dance masterclass app, this app is hot garbage. -

### 1/5 — Not a 7 day free trial

*2023-04-28*

I was charged after 3 days so be careful. Customer support is non existent and the app is riddled with glitches. It’s a shame because some of the content is good but the app does not function well at all. Still trying to get a refund after I was charged 3 days into the 7 day FREE TRIAL!!

### 1/5 — Stuck

*2023-04-05*

Sadly the page just stays in subscription and does not allow to start the program when signed??? 
Hope this issues will be resolve.
I will give it another try and rewrite the review.

### 1/5 — Fix App Please

*2021-06-14*

It seems like it’s on hiatus or offline…no free trial nor sign up or anything for that matter and i was so excited for this…i winder how ballerina Scout got thru?

### 1/5 — Can’t even sign up.

*2021-04-10*

I really want to try this out but the sign up button doesn’t work. And when I go to read the terms and conditions there’s no way back to the sign up page again. Will happily change my review if this gets fixed!

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2021-07-13, version 6*

I’m an ex-dancer getting back into shape after having a baby, this app is freaking 🔥
Have loved every workout so far!

### 5/5 — Perfect mid-day guided Stretching

*2021-06-23, version 6*

This app has been a lifesaver over the last month in preventing lower back pain and tension in my hips and hamstrings. I have been sitting WAY too much working from home and this is the perfect midday break right before lunch. After struggling with several injuries from dance this is the perfect program to keep accountable on a daily basis! For a few improvements: push notifications as a reminder to stretch or notify me of workout time; a way to filter the 10-15 mins routines from the 20+ mins ones it’s much easier between meetings for a quick 10 min stretch on crunched days; the ability to play music on Spotify or another app in the background while stretching on the same device maybe having the music/podcast pause briefly or the option to have the song volume slightly lowered to hear the cue on the Tabata style stretches/workouts for intervals. Improvements on reducing slight scrolling lag when selecting/starting a routine. Potential Reward type system to give badges of completion for programs or multi-day streaks

### 5/5 — I love this fitness app!

*2021-03-06, version 4.3*

This is the dancer fitness app I’ve been waiting for! As a professional ballet dancer, who has explored many different styles of cross training, I found it has just the right balance of targeted, full body, and HIIT style workouts to round out my training. It also has an extensive flexibility section, that has been great for adding stretching back into my daily routine. Be prepared to work hard especially in the intermediate and advanced level workouts! A lot of the exercises incorporate ballet elements, so I feel like, dancers will get the most benefit from the training, but there are plenty of options for non dancers who want a more graceful and lengthening workout. Also, very little equipment is required for most of the workouts which make them ideal for doing at home or in smaller spaces. The 6 week, and 12 week programs are especially useful as the app automatically populates a calendar for you with 1-3 workouts a day, and allows you to work towards longer term goals. 

The app itself is simple, uncluttered, and easy to use, with clear videos demonstrating the exercises, voice over introductions, a nice visible timer with an ability to pause, and additional ‘Help’ for more in-depth information on form and key exercise elements. The workouts move at a fast pace, but after a few days of using the app, I quickly got the hang of it! There are also follow along workouts that give a more guided feel, and the variety is nice. There is a ton of content already up on the app, and it is updated regularly with more. I am currently two months into using it, and already seeing results, and I can’t wait to see it continue to develop!

### 5/5 — Good and relevant content

*2020-11-11, version 3*

Some of the workouts are very exclusive and very helpful. The app allows me to train at anytime and anyplace without too much hassle.

### 5/5 — So awesome

*2020-09-04, version 2.7*

So awesome

### 5/5 — WOW

*2020-08-19, version 1.0*

The most comprehensive app I’ve seen for dancers of all levels to date!

### 4/5 — Trial period

*2021-12-09*

The trial period dropped from 7 days to three day just as soon as you log in.

Also, why isn’t there any sound???????

### 4/5 — Please fix the signup form!

*2021-02-24*

Trying to sign up, but I can’t click into the confirm password field

### 4/5 — Great workouts!

*2020-12-12*

Love the workouts!  They complement ballet training beautifully!  A couple of things I would change- I would love to be able to use the calendar to schedule individual workouts, rather than just programs, and I would love to see a little preview window 10 seconds before a new exercise starts, so I know what is coming up next.  Looking forward to seeing upcoming new workouts!

### 4/5 — No way to reset password in app

*2020-09-16*

Wanted to start using, cannot even get past password, just keeps telling me it’s wrong without giving option to reset
