    DVDs of dancing or cardio dancing (check your library).

    Walking at a brisk pace. Gym things like the eliptical, biking, spinning, jumping jacks, marching in place

    in short, almost anything that gets you breathing a little heavy so that it's difficult to carry on a conversation.

    Good luck.:flowerforyou:
