I have been line dancing for over 20 years and I love it. Whilst helping to keep my weight down I have made lots of friends and have had a great social life as well.

I used to dance while vacuuming. I would put a CD on with a jazzy rhythm.
Favourite: All Rock and Roll to me, Billy Joel.
Husband does the vacuuming now, but I still like that tune.

I've always danced in the kitchen ever since I can remember. It's not conscious effort; it just sort of happens if I'm in there and the radio's on playing music. And, yes, OH thinks I'm a bit bonkers.

Hi there everyone. After years of routine exercise... walking, running, gym, yoga, swimming, DVDs.. you name it I've tried it and became bored and still large with it all.. I have discovered the radio... no more depressing daytime tv. I turn on the music and dance, the cats think I'm crazy and as far as I know the neighbours haven't noticed. My fitbit steps are up and I get really out of breath... but absolutely love it. No special equipment to buy and no one to criticise, I feel happier and have muscles I haven't felt in years. Anyone else doing alternative fitness out there.? Would love to know what makes others fit.
