Hi everyone

Does anyone do northern soul dancing for exercise and can anyone recommend how or where to go to learn how to do it? I'm in Yorkshire in the UK.

Thanks

Kat

    Looks like more fun than the treadmill. The best workout is something you enjoy doing

    I don't know about Northern Soul, but I have lost a lot of weight using swing dancing as my main form of exercise. It's so much fun and it doesn't feel like exercising even though I am clearly getting my heart rate way up. That dance looks like it would give you a similarly good, fun, workout.
