Dance...out of my Realm

I decided to jump back into the working out regime and attended a Street Dance, basically Hip Hop, class at the gym tonight. Five minutes in I was gasping for breath and sweating my butt off. I love Hip Hop dance so it was good to get back into that environment. What a great workout! That was much better than going and walking on the treadclimber for 30 minutes. Those 30 minutes seem like hours sometimes. Usually the class is 55 min. but tonight a girl was introducing her Belly Dancing class so half way through she tried out her instruction on us so she could get some practice. Belly Dancing...if she can make me dance like Shakira I am all for it! It was interesting to say the least. She had us sitting in the middle splits and then flexing our glute (I know my spelling is wrong on that) muscles one at a time. This was hilarious! I was glad that my sister and my good friend were in the class with me so we could laugh about it. I never knew I could move those muscles in that way. Watch out Shakira...here I come!
