With rising obesity rates in the country, it's important to find an exercise that you love, which means an exercise that doesn't feel like exercise. It has to be fun. That's where dancing comes in, specifically the hip-hop genre. Hip-hop dancing is good because:

1. you can do it alone ( You don't need a partner like you do with salsa, swing, or ballroom)

2. You can do it with friends! Teach the moves to your friends, and you can look like the background dancers of Brittany.

3. You can do it anywhere: in the gym's aerobics' room when there isn't a class going on, in your living room, or on a basketball court.

4. You can use the moves at the club. Here, you're actually learning a skill you can use out on the town when you go out with friends.

5. You can improvise and get creative. Hip-hop is all about just feeling the rhythm, being a creative individual, and using you body to express that creativity.

Most people are intimidated by the thought of going to a hip-hop dance class. I know I was. I went to a dance studio and signed up for a beginner's hip-hop class. I went to the first session and the instructor paired us up in-groups of two and gave us an assignment: to make up a routine of 4 sets that uses 8 counts. Huh? I had no idea what to do. In my head, I was like, Didn't I sign up for the beginner's class? I was the novice in the class and everyone else was getting the moves except for me. Not only was it embarrassing, but I wasted 30 bucks because I didn't come back to finish the rest of my classes for the month. I paid 40 dollars for 4 sessions and only made it to the first one.
