Competitive women's bodybuilding was just coming into its own in 1979, though very few of the women were in the New York City area. In order to get more material to release for films, we ran a few ads in 'Backstage' and received responses mainly from dancing and ballet professionals. They were filmed using Super 8 film (no sound, so music is dubbed) and the picture quality varies and there are some bad edits, but overall a very interesting and viewable video. Most of the dancers had only one developed bodypart (calves), though a few, like Cornelia and Michelle DeMetz had very good upper bodies, so we filmed them accordingly in bikinis and dresses. By the time 1979 was over, the bodybuilding competitions grew like crazy and the need for 'dancer' film sessions was no longer needed. Running time 1 hour.
