Dance Workout Dvd's

Hi everyone

Hope someone can help with this. I've decided I need to lose some weight and exercise more because as a 40 year old mum of 3 I still occasionally get comments from my older children asking if I"m pregnant. I haven't lost my pregnant tum look from 3 years ago when my youngest child was born and at 5"3 inches weigh around 9 stone 6 lbs. I know I need to start gently because I'm completely unfit and spend the majority of my time sitting behind a desk in an office. I don't have time to go to a gym and to be honest I"m so unfit I'd be embarrassed but quite like to dance and thought that if I bought a couple of dance workout DVD's I'd be able to use them and make a fool of myself in the privacy of my own home. Trouble is theres so many of them and I'm so unfit I don't know where to start so I wondered if anyone could suggest something as I really need to tone up and get rid of my tum but haven't got a clue where to start. Any help/advice would be much appreciated.

i always thought that the charlie brrook one was a good one
but you really got to choose one thats right for you, library perhaps???

if you like strictly come dancing the ones lilia has done are probably ok for getting into shape gently - latinasize and latinatone. The SCD exericise dvd is good but very energetic (for me anyway lol)

I don't like going to the gym either and have used plenty of workout dvds recently. I have found Rosemary Conley to be quite a good choice. However my favourite by far has been Vicky Binns Dance It Off. Easy to get used to and don't have to do the whole workout if you haven't got time. Can also build up and eventually get through the whole dvd. Has very well balanced sections.

I have two on the go at the mo!! One is 'Bollywood Workout' by Honey Kalaria!! The other is 'Hiphop Workout'!!! Both are very different but really enjoyable!! It depends what sort of dancing you like to do!!:j

Another vote for Charlie Brooks from me!!

I also have got Davina dvds which I like - they not really dancey but seem to help anyway!!

Hope thats helps!

I also have the ministry of sound one and it really does work up a sweat.

I also have the dirty dancing one which is good when you get the hang of it.

If you fancy something abit more sexy Carmen Electra's strip tease is a great work out!

Thanks for the replies everyone. I really appreciate it. I've gone for the Ministry of Sound and Charlie Brooks DVD's and my Yoga set arrived yesterday so I can start practising and hopefully get fitter. All I have to do now is learn to eat more sensibly and get over my addiction to Coca Cola!!! ( Yes I know its filled with sugar, and is really bad for you but I can't help it. I'm addicted to the stuff!!!:T
