I came, I saw, and I danced my a$$ off!  Seriously, I honestly think I sweat more in this hour of my life than I have in forever!  If you know me at all, you know I love to shake what my momma gave me (you can witness this at any Yelp event that involves music--am I right Rhonda?!?!?).

So one can imagine my delight when I saw the DDPP event posted here on Yelp. I must confess I had never heard of Dance Dance Party Party, so I was intrigued by the premise of dancing ( I mean really moving) along in a females only atmosphere for an HOUR all for the low low price of $5.

Now as this was my first time, it was a bit awkward at first. You just sort of feel a little silly, but after 5 mins, that awkwardness melted away and the dance fiend within me leaped out went all out (she is funny that way). The people who run this are nice & encouraging of newbies. This really is for all females--all shapes, all sizes & all ages--no need to be a professional dance--just shake that a$$.

Here is the drill:
**it is every Wednesday from 7-8 and every Sunday from 4-5pm
**Go with a fun attitude--it is totally & completely up to you how involved you are & how much fun you have. So, throw caution to the wind & just go with it!
**You show up in comfortable clothing--think layers so that you can remove stuff when you get warm.
**wear a good sports bra--trust me those girls will be bouncing all around.
**You warm up, stretching is key, no need to hurt yourself.
**Bring water, you are sooooo going to need it. If you forget, they have bottle of water there that they sell for $1 a piece.
**DANCE, DANCE, DANCE, and then DANCE some more. There is no specific instruction, you just move as your feel, let the music guide you.
**Music is put together by "DJ's" who are actually class participants. So, you could make up a play-list as well at some point.
**after the hours is up, you head home feeling pretty good about yourself and your righteous moves.

Oh and there are only 2 rules during that hour:
NO JUDGEMENT, seriously who needs it anyway, you are all there to have some fun & get your booty shaking.

NO TALKING, trust me when I say, that is not a problem as you will be huffing & puffing to the tunes.

I am looking forward to another time of booty shaking, perhaps next time you will join me.
