What a wonderful idea — I remember those days of “dancing to the music” whenever the mood struck — no wonder I was a lot thinner then! Gotta go boogie . . . have a great day everyone!

I have a 9 month old so we can dance to the songs on her baby CDs. Now I can teach her about music and dance all at once. Let’s Dance!

I think this will be fun. I will be in the privacy of my own home so I will not feel embarrassed by the crazy moves I do!

I love to dance with my kids. We dance around the house together once in a while but not on a regular basis. I’m excited about the challenge to do it everyday. The kids will really love it that mommy is “playing” more.

I used to dance in a company. Needless to say, I was very aware of movement and my body. Losing that sense of self as a physical entity is something I miss more than much else. It’s funny, but just dancing like a wild woman around the living room can brin back that awareness in a flash! Thank you, Kashi, for the inspiration!

I like to put on some ‘moving’ music while I clean and it always leads to some spontaneous dance breaks ;-)

Zumba dance CDs are the absolutely best workout CD’s I have every purchased. There is a quick 20 minute workout that gives you a great workout in no time!

I LOVE dance! I have been dancing (ballet, tap, jazz, pointe) since I was eight years old! I am starting ballroom and hip-hop soon so that is exciting!!!!!! :) Dance nurtures my spirit and soul, it is an amazing form of self-expression, just like fashion and acting are for me!

I always thought I never had any rhythm to dance, but I started hearing some modern techno on internet radio, and I could not sit still. I have found my rhythm! It’s just faster :) I have been dancing everyday since and I love it! I am trying to learn various moves now, and just learning those is half the fun!! :D
