The Ultimate Design in Body Exercise

The ultimate design in body exercise transforming your body shape, The Lotte Berk Technique is programmed to work all your muscles. Lotte Berk, the originator and founder of her techniques, trained as a modern ballet dancer. Many of her exercises have been inspired by dance. She uses floor work and bar work. Her exercises are specially designed for non dancers to enjoy and achieve.

These remarkable exercises are for women who are serious about their fitness and their figures, who want results. Lotte believed that the class emphasis should be on fun, having a laugh. Exercise she says can be so boring and she certainly succeeded with her sharp wit and humour.

Press coverage from my trip to New York

Esther Fairfax is now welcoming new trainees in the Lotte Berk Technique

My dream is that Lotte Berk will get back to being as popular as she was in the 60s, 70s and 80s. The Lotte Berk Technique is so exquisite and so good, it'd be tragic if the world lost it.
