Belly dancing is definitely the exercise for me!! It's more of a total body workout than you'd think. The fact that it's fun makes it that much easier to do. I have some great DVDs that I use but maybe one day I'll actually go to a class. Who else is enjoying dance?

Surprisingly, me. I may be old, but I have 32 videos of different styles of exercise, including belly dance, hula, Bollywood, and Pussycat Dolls. My favorite soundtrack on my MP3 that I wear when walking or doing weights is the soundtrack from Burlesque.

I took belly dancing class when I was pretty close to my highest weight and loved it.

Almost all of my exercise is in the pool right now (I have thrown in some belly dance moves into my stretching), but am really looking forward to when I can start taking dance classes again!

I'm going to buy a cheapo hip scarf off eBay I think. Glad you ladies like it too!

I have been doing tribal belly dance for a few years and love it. Mostly improv. It is challenging but fun. I love that women of all sizes do tribal style

I was belly dancing at 380 pounds before my 1990 injury took away my ability to walk. I have a video of myself and 2 friends belly dancing at a South Florida NAAFA convention. We had so much fun learning the routine and making our own costumes. Now not being able to walk and being much older I do not think I will belly dance again. However when I get to my goal I would love to teach Bokwa to the elderly like myself.

Love this thread I so want to belly dance only took one class. Also want to tap dance at 56 lol

I will be 4 weeks out on the Tuesday. So maybe I can start.

Dance dance dance! So good for us.
