Dance to feel great

"Dance For Fitness And Feel Great"," One is that it has to be dull.

In fact, it could be that your lifestyle already includes an element of fitness.
 Ideally your body needs around half an hour of consistent movement to feel the benefits.


Many moves have become popular of late.
 Still others benefit particular areas of the body in obvious ways.
 The great thing is that individuals can start at any time and continue until they are very old, though feeling young thanks to the salsa.
 Just turn on the radio or CD player and get moving.
 Just once in a while with friends is not good enough to cause significant difference in your body strength or appearance.


You may want to ask at one of your local fitness centers if they are hosting any classes.

Exhibiting Emotional Intelligence While Under Pressure

"Exhibiting Emotional Intelligence While Under Pressure"," A dance teacher demonstrated extremely high skills, managing her emotions during a difficult situation.
 My wife took lessons there, as did my daughter.
 So this is a third-generation dance family.
 My wife and I have been ""helpers"" for many years.
 I'm up front, selling tickets and then I go backstage to watch the performance and make sure the area is clear of those who are not supposed to be there.
 The teacher whose group is performing stands behind the main curtain so the children can see her but the audience cannot.


The 3-year old dancers are my favorite.
 This year one of the dance teacher's three-year old daughter was performing for the first time.
 Nothing was going to get her to go on stage.
 But the little girl was firm.


The teacher's actions for the remainder of the program where inspiring.
 She patiently, calmly and lovingly managed her daughter and the other dancers.


On our trip home, my wife and I discussed what could have happened if the teacher had not managed her emotions so well.
 A negative experience such as this might have caused the little girl to refuse to dance in future recitals or avoid other stage experiences.
 The impact of that choice can be both immediate and long-term.

"Dance the Weight Away"

"Dance the Weight Away"," The very next day I remember stepping out of the shower, being startled, and wondering who was that in the room with me! And why is she naked! And between you and me the last time I saw a butt that big it had a tail and udders. OMG! That's MY BIRTHMARK! I spun around gasping, took another look and thought, yep, there's the udders. Besides it's better for my ego that way. I mean it's like your head no more than hits the pillow and BUZZZZ the alarm goes off. Over the next couple of weeks I went to different gyms and health clubs only to walk away more depressed than when I walked in. I've raised 4 children, I'm raising 3 grandchildren and I have been a critical care nurse for over 16 years. What was the difference between the me of 20 years ago and the me now. Dancing! Like I said before I used to go dancing almost every night. I never worried about what I ate or going to the gym because every night I'd just dance the weight away. I mean it fun right!?! So I started looking at the benefits of dancing and exactly what type of dancing could really help to shed the weight and tone up. They all involve you moving your body from head to toe. The reason I found those dances to be best is because you can start with a gentle, toned down version of the dance and build up quickly to the full blown, hopping around, shimmy shaking, hip grinding, sexy dance. it is sexy. I know it does me. And I'm having fun doing it! So if you want to have fun shedding those extra pounds and getting toned up. , Dance the Weight Away! . THIS IS WHAT YOU GET TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT
