I don’t go downtown much anymore so I arrived early and wandered around. While browsing I found a Hip Hop Workout video. Since little brother took the Wii Fit back East with him, I’ve been looking for something else ‘fun’ to do. I love to dance and I’ve never learned to hip-hop so I figured it was worth the money to give it a shot. <\/p>\n
Things I’ve learned. <\/strong><\/p>\n Hip-hop moves are a lot like belly dancing. I took a belly dancing course a few years ago and still incorporate some of the moves into my workout schedule anyway so this was a huge plus. <\/p>\n The warm up is great. By the end of it I was feeling pretty confident.<\/p>\n Spins are hard to do on a carpeted floor. It will take some work and maybe a bit of ingenuity to do them. <\/p>\n Lunges are easier, but the girls on the video are doing lunges so low their chins are practically touching the floor, that will take some work. <\/p>\n The music they used was great, it was just a base beat with a counter beat thrown in to keep it interesting. When I gave up on the hip hop lesson I kept the DVD playing and did some of my other exercises to the beat. It’s a half hour workout so I can time my workout without having to constantly monitor the clock. It’s a win\/win.<\/p>\n Eventually I’ll be able to do the whole routine and be stylin’ out on the dance floor.<\/p>\n \n Oh wait, I’ve always been a good dancer. I come from a dancing family. I had an aunt and uncle both taught tap and jazz and my aunt also taught Hawaiian. <\/p>\n I was that cute little 3 yr old on the stage. Now I can pop-it that much more. <\/p>\n<\/td>\n I don’t go downtown much anymore so I arrived early and wandered around. While browsing I found a Hip Hop Workout video.
