Today with this wonderful life I have, I have unforgettable moments and I have met many wonderful people. In these moments I thank God for blessing me with the talent of my dancing, but above all things, for giving me the opportunity to touch the souls of others, and for the inspiration I get from everyone. I am convinced that besides the evil going on in the world, God has a plan for us all, and when we follow the plan with our hearts, nothing can stand in our way. I am grateful for the opportunity to produce, direct, create, dance, and even write such beautiful experiences. Today and always, I will continue dancing and carrying forward my plan,  nothing will stop the passion I feel for the dance and for my work.  I will continue to inspire others to keep following their hearts. But most of all, i will keep teaching my students to never give up.</p>
<p>Blessings,<br />Nathalie</p>

Aerobic<br />exercise, which is also referred to as Cardio, includes any type of exercise,<br />typically those performed at moderate levels of intensity for extended<br />periods of time, that maintain an increased heart rate. In such exercise,<br />oxygen is used to &#8220;burn&#8221; fats and glucose.</p>
<p>“But why do people think they have to get on a treadmill or bike at the gym<br />to do their Cardio?” says Rafael Moret,CSCS, President of South Florida<br />Fitness BootCamp (<a href="http://www.southfloridafitnessbootcamp.com/">http://www.southfloridafitnessbootcamp.com/</a> ). “After a while walking on the<br />treadmill or riding the bike at the gym is boring, and you don’t want that”.<br />People should only do their cardio indoors once per week, if that&#8230; the rest of the<br />aerobic workout should come from another activity. People should have<br />fun with their workouts and develop habits that will become part of their<br />lifestyle.</p>
<p>Belly Dancing is a GROWING Trend and awesome way to burn calories.<br />According to Dr. Edward R. Laskowski,M.D.-&#8221;Belly dancing can burn 250-300<br />calories per hour. &#8220;&#8230;Belly-dancing and other types of dance can be good exercises for weight loss.<br />In fact, you can burn as many calories belly-dancing as you can walking, swimming or riding a bike.<br />As with any physical activity, however, the weight-loss benefits of belly-dancing depend on several factors —<br />including the frequency and length of your workouts and your exertion level.</p>
<p>If you’re tired of going to the gym, tired of working out to music that doesn&#8217;t<br />inspire you, then why not dance and get a great workout at the same time<br />to music you’ll love. It is perfect for those who want to burn calories and<br />learn how to sway their hips and make your belly move !!!</p>
<p>“The reason we encourage dance class vs. aerobic class is because of the<br />Lifestyle enhancing qualities it provides,” says Moret. Exercising has to be<br />part of your life not just a phase, if you are looking to lose weight or simply<br />stay in shape. Sometimes, aerobic classes are very repetitious and don’t<br />actually teach skills you can use.</p>
