Get your dance on, and get fit!

3 Dance routines to get your body moving

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Today’s workout is inspired by the Dancing With The Stars Charlotte event.  On Monday, we invited Motivational Fitness Trainer Meghan Trainor, to walk us thru some fun dance routines that will give you a good workout.  Dancing is a great way to get your body moving and to enjoy some good cardio activity.  Here are a few exercises to accomplish that goal.

Exercise 1:  Party Pumps will get you dancing.  Just hop or jump in rhythm to the beat of any song and pump one of your fist high in the air.

Exercise 2:  The Stanky Leg is an old time favorite where you get in sync a bowed leg and a leg rhythmic arm and let one  leg bend inside to outside while keeping the other her leg still.

Exercise 3:  My Mama’s dance is one that is designed to keep your entire body moving and dancing to the beat.
