She probably means, 'calisthenics' - systematic rhythmic bodily exercises performed usually without an apparatus - aka push-ups, sit-ups, prisioner squats, etc...

Hi Amanda,
I apolagise for my ignorance but what is callanetics?
Click to expand...

Callanetics is a 'no impact' fitness program that is best described as a combination of yoga and ballet. It was developed by Callan Pinckney in the early 80's.

About ten years ago, I took a Callanetics class from a certified center when I was living in Houston. The results were indeed dramatic! The exercises are basically series of deep tissue stretching and tightening; all done very slowly and in a relaxed environment. I took the class for six months or so before I moved out of state. I really enjoyed the program, but I was unable to find any instructors in my new home. I have some of the books on Callanetics and have done many of the exercises on my own, though not as faithfully as I should be doing. Bad me!
 
Looking for Callanetics classes

I am interested in taking Callanetics classes, but can't find any in the Houston area. Can you please tell me where you took yours? Thanks!
 
Funny, I just dug out my Callanetics video and bought a yoga mat and was thinking of getting back into it again. I used to do Callanetics years ago and I loved it. Really dramatic results.

If you can't find the class or books, the video might be out there on the 'Net somewhere.

I highly recommend giving it a try!
