I just learned to Lindy on saturday, and I think it might be the best workout ever. Very good for the arms and such good cardio! :laugh: Does anyone else lindy?

    It's a type of swing dancing. There are some really sweet videos on youtube.

    Did you learn from the youtube videos or did you take a class?

    No, I went to a workshop for 3 hours, and then we had a 4 hour evening dance. My legs were in major pain by the end! I'm sure that you could learn from the videos though, so long as you have a partner. :drinker:

    Sounds like fun and a good cardio workout. I wonder how many miles you racked up:happy:

    Yeah, once I really get the hang of it and do fast lindy... I think it's what they mean by intense dancing, which is like 800 cals an hour. Not that you can do it for a straight hour, you'd get too dizzy! :wink:
