Strip-aerobics
So my friend invited me to go with her to a dance class she signed up for. I thought sure why not since I did belly dancing and zumba classes for the past 2 years. Well she called me later on in the afternoon to be like did I mention it was cardio strip tease/strip-aerobics. She didn't but I was excited Terri Hatcher was on The View one morning talking about it and she was on Oprah talking about it as well. I love my belly dancing class and even took a sensual belly dancing class so I knew this would be a lot of fun. Just so I could know what I was getting myself into I looked it up...
"Essentially, as with all aerobic classes, the eventual goal is an all-over body workout - and if the claims are to be believed, slow, sensual movements more commonly associated with the local strip club happen to equate to just that. Cardio Striptease is so much fun that it keeps you motivated. Many other fitness programs are extremely difficult to master while Cardio Striptease is so easy, and the moves are so natural, that you don't even realize you're working out. The time flies by and you're smiling all the way!"
So I thought this is going to be fun. From my belly dancing class experiences I knew that the class would probably be full of middle aged and older women trying to get their groove back :) (I'd have to write a whole other blog on belly dancing class). When we got there I was correct, the class was half and half and it was pretty fun. The techniques were pretty sexual but you really were getting a low impact workout. Some of the moves were risque especially being on the floor doing some stuff I saw the DC BadBoys doing for a dollar lol. But overall it was fun it was a little wild because they encourage you to touch yourself and really act like you are at the club on stage. Which wouldn't be so bad if there wasn't like a 65 year old woman in a sports bra and jazz pants thinking that she was stripper of the week.
So my conclusion is the striptease should be saved for the bedroom and or the club and not in a class full of women (or maybe not in that particular class) I think I'm going to stick to belly dancing which is sensual and not raunchy and maybe I'll get the cardio striptease video for the privacy of my own home...
That way by the time I get a man I'll be a master at it lol *smile*
