Sujata: Anything special. It seems you've lost quite a lot of weight.
Ranjana: Oh! Am I looking slim?
Sujata: Yeah. Have you joined gym, yoga classes or any fitness centre?
Ranjana: Not really.
Sujata: Then you must be on dieting.
Ranjana: No at all.
Sujata: Then what's the reason behind your sudden weight loss?
Ranjana: I've joined dancing classes.
Sujata: So you've lost weight through dancing?
Ranjana: Great. But how is it possible?
Sujata: Dancing is as effective as walking, swimming, jogging or bicycling. Dance for half an hour to burn about 300 calories. Dancing for half an hour equals walking for about 2 kilometers.
Dancing gives substantial cardiovascular benefits. Dance daily for half an hour to get protection against cholesterol and control blood pressure level.
Dance is an effective way to keep up a regular exercise routine. The dance movements strengthen muscles. Dancing also helps in shedding oodles of weight.
