Shakin’ it…Wednesday August 12, 2009
I’m trying all sorts of new exercises so I won’t get bored with the usual cardio machines and free weights. Belly dancing is great!! I thought I’d have a little fun and burn a few cals, but it’s been better than that. I’ve been sweating like crazy and I’m sore all over.
The ladies in the classes are all shapes and sizes, but are required to wear something that shows a little bit of midriff. Even when my moves aren’t perfect, I feel good doing them. Never have I felt so sexy while losing weight. Scratch that, I’ve never felt sexy exercising in any gym. No watching is allowed, if guys want to watch they have to be actively participating. Needless to say we’ve not had one single guy opt to stay. We feel free to dance, look and be sexy. And yes, lose weight.
Here’s to hoping that everything is coming together. Good luck to us all.
Glad you are enjoying your new belly dancing class, Best wishes
How exciting is that to find something that makes you sweat that you love? That is great! Is this a class that is offered at your gym? I may need to talk to my gym…teehee.
That sounds wonderful! You might also try Zumba, a latin cardio class. Started a year ago and I’m an addict. Enjoy your dancing!
I have always wanted to try that but to scared lol!
Congrats on finding something fun!!!!
