Loathe the stair-master? Put on your dancing shoes for some fun exercise
Does the idea of exercising on a treadmill or stairmaster make you cringe? Then do something fun for exercise -- dance your way to better health! Dancing is a great way to socialize, mix and mingle, as well as a good way to stay physically and mentally fit.

Dancing involves the entire body. Dance movements are multi-directional and help with joint mobility and flexibility. They are also weight-bearing and can strengthen the bones of your legs and hips, which is important for maintaining bone health.

Dance Shoes / Sneakers
I have various types of dance shoes for different occasions.  Some of my shoes look like regular street shoes, while other look like ballroom shoes.  The pair that I wear most frequently are Dance Sneakers by Sansha.  These are perfect for jeans but look horrible if worn with shorts or skirts.
"Dyna-Sty" S37C, S937C
