I used to dance for seventeen years -classical ballet, which was very disciplined. I like yoga and Pilates, but I don't have the discipline to go to the gym.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There's this certain caliber of dancing I was striving for when I was younger, and it's very hard for me to go back and just do it for fun. But I take all other kinds of classes: I take jazz classes, modern classes, and I love doing that instead of going to the gym. The gym is not very much fun.
I think that ballet is very good for the body. It's very similar to yoga, because you have to hold a position.
I have always done exercise because I was a dancer, and it is probably good for you. I have done yoga consistently.
Dance is a very disciplining career or hobby. I was disciplined at an early age.
I grew up dancing, and for a while in college, I was a gym rat. I finally realized... I'm going to create a little more balance in my life and make exercise something that I enjoy doing. So I went back to dance when I started doing more musical theatre, and I've just found that it's the best thing that works for my body.
I've been dancing since I was seven, but I never really developed a regimen until I was on Broadway and responsible for a professional performance every night.
I work out a lot and I do yoga and I do Pilates and I'm kind of athletic. I've taken dance classes, but at the same point I'm just a total klutz.
Dancing is my therapy. I also try to meditate every morning and take several two-hour yoga classes a week at my favorite yoga studio, Urban Flow.
For me, it's like biking around the neighborhood, the walks and stuff, because I have never enjoyed the gym. Or I'll do, since I used to dance a lot, all the old dance exercises.
I attend dance class every alternate day, and it works like a cardio workout for me. I also do weight training in the gym every alternate day.
