    Dancing is one of my fav things to do, but interestingly it’s not in my life as much as I would like. I’ll need to change that…Zumba, hip hop, cultural dance, free style “let the music move me” dance are all my loves. Do you have any recommendations for dance classes or studios to share?

      Absolutely right on Melissa, dancing is a great way to get in shape, stay in shape and have fun. I’m going to ask our Healthy Divas about dance classes to recommend. Ladies?
