Dancing for Excercise
 
Do you think it is wrong if you dance for excercise. NOT at a club.

Since they have the series out Dancing with the Stars they keep showing/telling how much weight they are losing doing these dance rountines.

How do you think that would differ from going to a workout club?

How expensive to you think it would be compared to workout clubs?

Would you be for or against this?

**Now do I sound like Thad? ;)

All I know is that after a couple of hours at any given dance class or a few hours at a "Wine & Roses" formal dance, it felt like I had been at the gym for the same amount of time.

After my husband and I watched "Shall we Dance," we thought about going to the local college and taking a class. We never got around to it but I think it would be fun.

I think it would be a fun way to exercise. Here, we would just have to pay to take the class. Several different dance options are available. I would be for it.

Should I ask what is a Wine and Roses?

Wine & Roses is the name of the dance club. The hold very formal, monthly, ballroom dances.

I see. Do you know how to ballroom dance?

I took lessons and competed for 8 years.

This was from a rumba competition (our first time before judges). About 5 or 6 years ago now.

Is "Shall we Dance" another type of contest?

Is that your wife with you?

No, it was my dance partner. I had many of them. :)
