Topic: I have a question about exercise and music
I love wearing my walkman (all the time) and listening to music. I exercise almost every morning (7am) to my music while I wear my ten pound ancle weights.
My partner is very ill and doesn't get up until usually ten, so I try to be quiet. All she can hear is my skin flapping!! LOL 
Anyway I've been listening to Christina Agualar and Beyonce, but I'm getting bored. I like hip hop, I used to listen to my teenagers music that's why I like those, but she lives away from me now (19) So I don't know what's good for MOVING!
Help, I need some suggestions. Does anyone else dance for exercise??

Salsa and merengue are my favorite dances. They just seem to flow from somewhere in my wholly Irish soul. I know that is weird. I am learning to belly dancing for my health. The Goddess Workout with the Goddess Dolphina. It is a fun workout even if I do probably look ridiculous doing it!

Hi I'm from Illinios my most wonderful husband of 12 years is hispanic. Even though I weigh 365, we go out and tear the floor up. My dance of choice is the cumbia but I do love to dance all types of styles and always open to something new. You ought to watch Dirty Dancing Havannah Nights:smoking:

Yes it does. I love to dance and can't wait to have this surgery and get this weight off so I can dance the night away.
Topic: Any Merengue or Salsa Dancers?
Just curious if anyone LOVES to dance Spanish music. I know its become all the rage lately but I've been doing it all my life and wanted to know if it reached into anyone elses soul as it does for me.
Keep on dancing!!
Topic: RE: Country Line Dancing :dance:
Hi,
I have never tried that except when I went to a banquet and we did the macaroni or whatever you call it lol. Anyway, I have been getting into a little HipHop lately. They offer free classes at my church and it's the "clean" type, not the "do it to me" type that you see on MTV (which I never watch). Anyway, I'm going to be auditioning for the dance team at my church next weekend and I am hoping I get in. I really love to dance. When I'm on the stage, all my troubles and problems disappear. It is a healing process for me as well as great exercise. Anyway, I'll have to try your way some day. Have you tried clogging? I'd like to try that some day too.
Topic: RE: Ballroom Dancing
Hi all,
I like ballroom dancing, but would like it more if my husband was interested. I don't care for dancing with other men. I have been getting involved in the dance forms that don't require a partner. Anyway, maybe some day I can convince him to take some classes with me.

Hi Sandy,
WOW! Guess I need to check the message board more often, huh? It's like almost a year???? sorry! I am going to audition for the dance team at my church next weekend. I am HOPING I get in. I've been involved in many drama/dance productions over the last few years. Anyway, I am really excited! My church offers free classes in HipHop and Ballet so I've been taking advantage of those as well. I was in ballroom for awhile but got tired of my husband not wanting to get involved and I didn't care much for dancing with other men so I stopped that. Anyway, sorry it has taken me so long to write back!
Topic: RE: Ballroom Dancing
Hi,
I also love to ballroom dance as well as salsa and other latin dances. When I can't get out or attend group events, I do it at home. there are some great workout videos with latin and ballroom dance moves on them. You're right, they are great workouts and if it gets you moving - more power to ya!
Hope that helps.

There are lots of great videos out there for you to learn by. My husband and I brushed up on our salsa using video/Dvd's. Do an internet search for the type of dancing or music followed by instruction or video or dvd, you should be able to come up with lots of websites. Local libraries might have videos as well.
Good luck
