Dancing is a workout
Filed Oct 09, 2006 at 12:45 AM ·
Ballroom dancing isn't for wimps.
In fact, it makes for a pretty good core workout. Watch Yaros, director of Dance International, one of several Austin dance studios that offer ballroom training, and Barker, head of the school's youth program, and you'll understand why dancing is a great way to stay in shape. Both are classically trained ballet dancers with the lean, lithe bodies of athletes.
"It challenges you physically," says Yaros, who also practices yoga and is certified to teach Pilates. "To do ballroom dancing (at the top levels), you have to be fit."
