    Bellydancing!

    your post is too cute!! What dvd's are you using? I've often thought of trying bellydancing because I have read it is suppose to be good for your abs but I have no idea where to start. It will absolutely be a work out I do alone! I think your frog in a blender visual would be very accurate...
