Dancing to merengue is such a great workout. I take lessons at this dance studio and I have finally been losing wieght. It's so much fun that it doesnt feel like exercise! If there is one album I would recommend for begginers it would be the most recent Johnny Ventura album. The album sounds great because Emusica re-mastered it after buying the rights of merengue albums from Kubaney. My boss at Universal got me hooked on Johnny Ventura.
Any form of movement can work. Glad you found one that works for you. Keep your diet intact, add calorie burn by the movement of your choice, and bingo!
