My mother on the other-hand would play the music loud while she cooked and cleaned. Her form of exercise was dancing while cleaning which I catch myself doing as well to this very day.
In 2009, working as a legal assistant in a law firm, I came to find out that the attorney I worked for was a DJ back in the 90s and had 2 turntables sitting in his garage! I bought it off him and spent my all my weekend mornings just practicing and practicing until I learned how to beat-match. I started recording my mixes and posting them online and the rest is history.
So now I use dance to help others loose weight and most importantly have fun while staying active. I DJ to share my love for music and seeing people dance and enjoy the music I play is all I could ask for.
