I have been doing exercises from Fitness Blender (totally recommend) but I would also like to throw some sort of dance aerobics in my routine for a change up. I remember doing Ministry of Sounds-Pump It Up and thought that that was a little fun. Is there any recommendations?

    Head over to videofitness.com and ask their recommendations. There are a lot of people there who might have recommendations for videos. I have a fair amount of dance videos. I like Zumba on the XBOX 360. That is pretty fun. I also like Christi Taylor's Spice video (there is no verbal cueing though). Shaun T's Rockin Body is fun. Jennifer Galardi has some Hip Hop Videos that aren't too bad. I have a lot of bellydance dvds, and I guess it just depends what you are looking for and how much time you have to exercise on those. What kind of dance style do you like and what level of exerciser are you? (beginner, intermediate, advanced?).

    I got on Amazon yesterday and ordered a hip hop dance dvd and two sweatin to the oldies dvd's. I remember doing sweatin to the oldies when I was a teenager and really thought it was fun. I have to enjoy my exercise or I won't do it but it's impossible to not feel happy and energized with Richard Simmons lol. I also like that it is not full of super skinny model looking girls who make me feel worse about myself. Most of the people are heavier and/or older and make me feel more normal :)
