Oddly enough of all the things I would think I would miss during recovery who thought exercise would top the list. But it does I found it to be such a fun way to relieve stress. Plus I love to dance. BTW my hubby would kill me if he knew I tried to do a salsa move today. I won't try that again for a while. No worries i took it slow and I didn't it hurt myself. My body just said hey don't move your hips until you are more healed. So for the rest of you able body Cruisemates I want you to get out of that chair and follow along. I like this video because the lady in pink is doing the routine low impact while the lady in black is higher impact. My instructor is good at showing the routines both ways so we can go at our own pace. Here is a link if you want to see it full size. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E35-hUYpRmU

I have heard of Zumba but never actually seen a class in action. I LOVE the world-beat music, and it looks like great exercise. A little too aerobic for me maybe, but looks like fun!
I really miss my Pilates classes, just can't find one around these parts.....
Sorry - I know that I have been "mia" for quite some time - but Katlady - as I read your thread it says you are recovery - I hope you are ok.
I had a Supra-cervical hysterectomy about 2 weeks ago and it went well. Better then I expected. Meaning I thought it would hurt more. I had about 10 fibroids on my uterus and it was causing problems. Because of the fibroids I had a abdominal incision instead having it done laparoscopic. So my recovery time is longer. And that is probably way more information then you needed.

instead of Zumba perhaps pole dancing would speed up your recovery..Demi Moore indicated it worked wonders and that's how she was able to attract Ashton
