Dance Film Favorites: The Red Shoes

"Bowers isn’t known just for the impressive array of celebrities she’s trained — or for sculpting the bodies of Victoria’s Secret models. Her 500,000-plus Instagram followers love her keen sense of aesthetics — which reflect both her personal elegance and that of the art she’s practiced since she was three years old."

"Bowers famously trained Natalie Portman for Black Swan, and if you look around her Greene Street studio in NYC, you’re apt to spot anyone from Imaan Hammam to Alexa Chung and Miranda Kerr perfecting their balance, strength and flexibility through Bowers’ elegant and at times brutal workouts."

"Mary Helen Bowers is an industry legend for her incredibly toning, ballet-inspired workout classes"

“Bowers is famous for her elegant, punishing Ballet Beautiful method, which she used to train a host of Victoria's Secret Angels, many of whom have had their derrières toned to godly perfection at one of Bower's studios.”
