When January comes around many of us start to feel the effects of Christmas over indulgences and our thoughts turn to stepping up the exercise routines that we may have relaxed through December. The gym is of course a favoured option among those trying to tone up in the New Year, and you can often find daily deals on gym visits so that you can try out a gym before committing yourself to a long membership. Take a look at daily deals website D3ALS.co.uk for the best choice of gym offers from the likes of Groupon, KGB Deals and Living Social on one convenient, easy to use website. If, however, pounding the treadmill or pumping iron bores you to tears, why not try out something a bit different and a touch more interesting? Dance is a fantastic form of exercises and dance classes have the added benefit of being fun, which of course means that you are more likely to return week after week. Those who had prima-ballerina fantasies as a child are sure to enjoy ballet fitness classes, which will develop poise and strength. Whereas those who prefer something a bit more upbeat will have fun at zumba classes, which involve performing high energy South African dance routines. Whatever type of dance class you choose, from classical styles such as ballet and tap, to more modern styles like zumba or street dance, you'll be burning calories and toning up in an enjoyable way. Another great benefit of taking dance classes is that they offer an opportunity to socialise with other like-minded, wannabe dancers. This social aspect is often lacking in a gym environment and will motivate you to continue with your class attendance. Your new interest could even lead to you developing some great new friendships for the new year, There's also a dance class for every mood - from an uplifting and energising salsa dance class to romantic lessons in ballroom dancing. You can vary your exercise routine depending on your needs throughout the week - perhaps you'd like to enjoy something energising to kick start your week and then wind down at the weekend with something calming and relaxing. Though not strictly dance, yoga is one of the most calming forms of exercise that you can do, and the fluid combinations of movements are akin to a dance form. You will also find that yoga offers many of the same benefits of dance classes such as ballet, as practice will leave you with a supple, poised body and see a noticeable improvement in your day to day posture. Of course, for many people, no matter how good their intentions are at the beginning of the year, a formal exercise routine just won't stick. Life tends to get in the way of exercise, and with many of us taking on extra hours at work or second jobs to make ends meet there may be little time left to devote to fitness. If that is the case with you it's a good idea to try and incorporate exercise into daily life - something that is surprisingly easy to do. Taking the stairs instead of lifts or escalators, or going for a walk every lunch time instead of eating at your desk, are small measures that quickly add up. There is a wide range of fun activities that, while not ‘sold' as exercise, will burn calories just as well as a session in the gym. Rock climbing, scuba diving, bowling, paintballing, archery and skiing are just some examples of the fun leisure activities that are great for overall fitness and wellbeing. The great news is that all of these activities have featured on daily deals websites recently, meaning that eagle eyed bargain hunters can enjoy these experiences for much less.
