“Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people just don’t shoot their husbands, they just don’t.” – Elle Woods. <\/em><\/p>\n

There isn’t a better quote out there to describe how dance workouts will make you feel. And after quarantine, boosting your mood and energy with endorphins is something you just might be craving.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking to switch up your fitness routine and haven\u2019t tried cardio dance workouts, listen up. The best thing about dance fitness classes and programs is that you don’t exactly feel like you\u2019re working out, and who is opposed to that? You\u2019ll burn hundreds of calories, break a wild sweat, and have a lot of fun. Kind of like being at a club in college, but without all the bumping and grinding and hangover that comes with it the next day.<\/p>\n

Not a dancer? No problem! You don’t need to have any skills past Elaine Benes<\/a>. Here are four dance workouts that are sweaty and most of all, fun.<\/p>\n

For Dancing and Toning: AKT<\/h2>\n
