A

Nowadays, keeping fit is everyone’s concern and I am not an exception. Since I am very busy, I can’t arrange time to go to the gym as often as when I was a student. However, in order to stay fit, I register for a dancing class, which is held twice a week.

Unlike running on the treadmill, dancing is more fun. It helps me burn a lot of energy. In addition, it enhances my flexibility with a lot of stretching movements. Dancing also allows me to work on all the parts of my body. You might look at dancers and think that dancing is light and easy, but you are wrong. In order to be that flexible and light, dancers have to work on their core muscles to maintain their stamina. Dancing can help burn as many as 360 calories in just an hour of intensive training.

By maintaining a schedule of dancing twice a week, I successfully manage to keep fit. Not only that, dancing helps me release stress especially after a hard working day.
