Depends on what kind of dancing. Straightforward aerobics and hip hop classes I’m not too bad at. But I recently downloaded zumba workouts which are supposed to burn up to 1000 calories in one hour. It is a latin-inspired dance fitness programme and it is all about the hip movement so I looked like a retard doing it! :o I haven’t tried it again but if you keep at it your body will loosen up and you will get better.

I took Zumba classes, they are SO much fun and a great way to stay fit!! But the thing about Zumba is, I think they only person who burns 1000 calories an hour is the instructor because you only really lose weight if you know the movements really well and can do it quickly. I did it for a few months and I still didn’t feel like I got a good enough work out when compared to running for an hour. Mind you, I’m also really uncoordinated. But still, I wouldn’t rely on just that for weight loss.
