Belly dancing is a GREAT way to find muscles you didnt know you had and will also help you with that back bend mentioned earlier, there are a few really good video's out there Neena and Veena belly dance fitness for beginners is really good, it gives you all the basic movements you will need to have down for actual dance,(though is NOT a dance rutine, is a work out) it has a series of chest lifts and drops, it teaches you step by step how to do a great eqyptian undulation, by thrusting your ribs out then up then back and down, also it shows you all the basic hip movements the hip lifts and drops and teaches you the two different ways to shimmy as well I believe (havent used it in about three years) there is also the 'goddess workout' this one is Ok, the camera angels arnt so great and the steps arnt quite as easy to follow for a newbie to the dance, but it does include a bit more serenety to it's work out also too, the belly dance community is growing nation wide, I'm guessing a lot of you have belly dancing classes offered and you may not even know it I fell in love with belly dance years agio and I just cant stop myself from dance dance dancing ! Good luck finding classes ~my'lee
