Anyone dance for exercise?

I've recently began taking ballet classes, and it is a fabulous workout. I am drenched in sweat by the end of a 2 hour class, and I can feel every single muscle in my legs screaming. It is fun, but a ton of work. I go once a week when class is running. We listen to nice classical music during class and shopping for dance clothes and accessories is a lot of fun, too. Can't wait until my class starts back up on the the 20th!

    I've done some zumba at home, does that count? :) Pretty different from ballet, but I do find it enjoyable and it definitely makes an intense long workout seem to fly by. I personally don't like going to classes, I prefer to exercise in the privacy of my own home. I'll go for a walk/jog when it's nice out, but I have a small library of workout dvds and a youtube playlist of exercise routines so I can't use the weather or shyness as an excuse.

    I hope you keep enjoying your ballet, and/or find other routines you like!
