Salsa Dancing makes its way into the gym. On the manic mommies website I found a reference to Zumba a new class to replace body pump, boxercise and all the other ways to dress up exercise.
This morning I took Zumba which is a combination of dances: mambo, salsa, bellydancing. What I lacked in coordination I made up for with a cute workout outfit! After all, if you are going to join the gym again, you have to go to Dick's Sporting Goods to get some new sneakers and cute little sports tops that cost a ridiculous $24 each!Zumba has its own website www.zumba.com where you can check out the moves, buy the zumbawear and train as a licenced instructor.

Just like any muscle if you exercise it, it gets strong. Same goes for relationships with your better half, your lover, best friend etc. Interestingly the article below highlights salsa dancing as a great way to exercise that muscle. See How to Build Relationship Muscle

When researching the previous post about the salsa basic step video I had to visit the addicted2salsa.com website. Couldn't resist linking to this article.
Now, I know this is one of those weird subjects, but I thought I'd share my experience at the club. Now, I am assuming everyone wears colonge (eau de toilette) - and if you haven't - you should. We all dance, and we all sweat like crazy - especially in a very packed club. Not many girls would like to dance with a highly sweaty, highly smelly (not good smelly) type of guy - especially if you are a beginner. Sorry, its the truth... So you might as well make the experience for your follow as pleasant as possible. So you should try and smell good for as most of the night as you can. However, I do a little extra other than wearing the regular Polo (Ralph Lauren) and on special occasions, Black (Kenneth Cole) colonge which some may have not thought of. I also use body spray. My preferrence is AXE body spray just because it goes on dry, and I like the smell of it - but back to the point. The main reason why I like body spray is because it goes directly on the skin (as opposed to colonge) and its less alcoholic which means it lasts longer. (Alcohol evaporates faster). Therefore, the more I dance (and sweat) the more fragarance comes out - especially if I dance bachata (a very close-up dance). That way I can at least not smelling badly when 11th hour chimes at the club. Again, a little goes a long way.

HE'S an egotistical, serial womanising love rat - at least that's what we've been led to believe. So it was with some trepidation that I went on a date with Strictly Come Dancing's quick-stepping Casanova Brendan Cole. We arrange to meet for lunch at the posh Oxo Tower restaurant overlooking the Thames. Advertisement Falk AdSolution Dressed in my new swirly frock and killer heels, I order
