Guess What I did !!!!!!

 I went to a dance class with some very good friends here from OH and I learned how to do a very basic box step for the Waltz and the Rumba !!!! Yes me !!!! I have always wanted to learn how to dance and it was sooooooo much FUN ! So as soon as I get my funds together I am going to get dance lesson package and start going. I am so excited. THANK YOU so much ( You know who you are ) for inviting me to join you. I can not thank you enough. I have been wanting to try something new and I think dance would be a really good and Fun exercise regimen and I look forward to starting.

Juanita That sounds like fun!  I learned a few dances in jr high school but never got to use them... until the Christmas party at Dr. Houstons.   Tim and I slow danced.  The first REAL slow dance with a boy! hehehe!  I of course cried. I couldn't help it.  It meant a lot to be with someone I loved. And, also I took up golf.  Had it in college but not a good player at all.  We went to the driving range two days ago... it was so pretty.  I was embarrassed but it takes practice!

 It was a lot of fun and maybe I will get to use my moves sometimes once I learn a thing or two maybe I won't be so hesitant to go out and have fun somewhere. Golf sounds like fun and I am sure it does take a lot of practice but at least your trying !!

I've always wanted to take dance lessons.  I love to watch dancing shows.  Dancing used to be a love of mine before I put on the weight.  I sooo want to be able to shake a tail feather again!

 My weight always kept me from doing the things I really wanted to do. I never had the courage or will to even try to learn. To afraid of someone seeing me or humiliating myself. It felt so good and so empowering to be on that floor and let go of some of that insecurity and just have a good time. I say go for it hon even now. The short time I was there last night I can feel the tightness in my legs and arms so it is a really good work out and so much fun at the same time. Come on girl get out there and shake your tail feather !!!

When I taught elementary p.e. I taught Country Line Dancing and that is fun and great exercise. I always lost weight while teaching that unti because I taught 13 classes a day.

I like the gym and all but my routine there has been about the same since I started working out. Dance however is different it's fun and it is great great exercise.  Wheww girl I can not imagine having to teach line dancing to kids 13 times a day.

My church has 2 hours of line dancing on Monday evenings.  I have been going for exercise and I really like it.  It is different and gets me moving.

Don't believe I have Welcomed you Jenn to Tn board so First  Welcome !!! I think it is the best of both worlds of fun and exercise and  I wish there was a program like that close to where I live. Glad you are enjoying yourself.

  I agree, better than the gym and a lot of fun.  Hope to see you waltzing around the floor soon!
