Have Fun With A
Bellydance Workout DVD!
The best exercise
I found is dancing and there's nothing more fun than the
Bellydance Workout DVD to trim away a fat middle and keep
everyone laughing while we workout. Dancing is something you
can do the rest of your life, any place there's a few square
feet and get a complete workout if you move more than just your
feet. Belly dancing doesn't require as much room as hip-hop or
other more modern forms of dancing yet it works all the core
muscles and your cardiovascular system.
I brought
the Bellydance Workout DVD home as a surprise anniversary gift
for my husband. My husband loves Middle Eastern cuisine and I
wanted to give him a special meal for our anniversary. Since I
already workout several hours a week, I thought it might be fun
to learn to belly dance to add authenticity to our meal. I
bought the Bellydance Workout DVD a few months before our
anniversary and devoted a few hours a week to learn the art
form.
While the
gift was supposed to be a surprise for my husband, it actually
turned out to
be a great gift for
me too. I'm not a
super thin person, nor do I ever want to look like a stick, but
I am fit. Belly dancing is a dance that actually enhances the
appreciation of the beauty and strength of the female body. It
works on the core muscles without endless leg lifts and sit ups
that strain the back.
One
afternoon, after telling my neighbor about the amazing workout,
she asked if she could join me and try it out. She loved it
too. Soon, others joined our group. It was hard to keep this
secret from my husband but each woman agreed that her lips were
sealed. We danced but also laughed so much that the laughter
alone helped tighten our abdominal muscles.
A week
before our anniversary I had to find an outfit to wear. I
wanted something authentic. One of the women knew just the
place to find the perfect costume. I was ready for the big
surprise. I had the meal planned, the perfect costume and the
perfect décor to turn our living room into the sultan's
palace.
My
husband's eyes popped out when he watched. He loved the fact
that I took so much time planning the anniversary meal and he
especially loved the new figure the Bellydance Workout DVD gave
me. The dance intrigued him and he talked about it all through
our dinner. I told him that my gift to him actually turned out
to be a bonus gift for me since I enjoyed learning the art of
bellydancing so much.
We now have
a large group of women that practice bellydancing several times
a week. It's one of my most enjoyable social outings. Unlike a
workout at the gym that gets boring after a while, I never get
tired of bellydancing. What started out as a gift for my
husband for our anniversary turned out to be a new passion for
me. The hours of entertainment that the Bellydance Workout DVD
gave me made it one of the most inexpensive forms of exercise
and entertainment around.
