I decided I better start practicing my hula first thing in the morning - so that I don't ever miss - and so that I'm not doing hula at 11 p.m. (after I have climbed in my bed and realized that I have forgotton!). So I put my headphones in and DANCED!!! I went through all the hula/Tahitian songs on my ipod, and did the choreography I have learned to each.
Tonight, I went to the gym with my son and sister. I walked slowly on the treadmill and did a few circuit weight machines. I was not motivated. We ran into a friend, who mentioned trying out Zumba at the gym. I am planning to meet her there soon. So I came home and finally unwrapped the Zumba game I bought last year - for the XBox Kinect. I spent one hour on that tonight. Some of what I have learned in hula really helped.
I still prefer hula. And I will still dance hula 365 days a year. But I need to exercise 2 times a day if I am going to lose any weight. Zumba is so popular, and available everywhere. I dream about the day that hula catches on - and becomes the popular class offered at all the gyms!
