The story behind this Coreography - Everyone who knows me, knows my soul loves nothing more than dance. After a brutal breakup where I felt (at the moment) extremely sad, somehow the pain created this coreography and now years later, I myself am amazed at how resilient we are. I believe music and dance are truly the best anti-depressants! I hope it inspires you all to dance, even if you aren't feeling joy inside. I promise you can't feel down when your hips are moving!

The clapping of the hands came literally from me trying to cheer myself up and giving myself a high five! The shoulder movement came from me feeling stuck and not wanting to move so I just moved my shoulders and felt the music. The curtsy lunges and squats are from years of teaching fitness classes - who doesn't want tones legs and a lifted booty? ;)
