The Happy Sweat Life

Lisa Rung

Are you looking for a way to stay fit that you actually look forward to doing?  Do you have challenges that make it hard to find exercise you can do and enjoy?  Welcome to The Happy Sweat Life!  Stay tuned for inspiring weekly interviews with people who have discovered dance-based exercise that they not only look forward, but that has also been healing for their mind, body, and spirit .  

But don't worry if you think you can't dance, have two left feet and no rhythm! Many of the styles we will be exploring emphasize that everyone with a body has a right and an ability to dance.

My name is Lisa Rung,  a former dancer, ice skater, triathlete and I found myself overweight, unmotivated and struggling to get back in shape after menopause.  I was introduced to World Groove Movement and Body Groove in 2021. It was not love at first try but I sensed an opportunity to reconnect with my physical self.  Not only was it great way to work out but also very affirming on so many levels. 

Discovering World Groove and Body Groove sparked my curiosity about what other wonderful dance-based exercise there might be that most people have not heard about.  Join me on this journey as we explore the myriad of options and investigate how adaptable and accepting each style is for the range of people in the world,  Hit subscribe and listen to the podcast that might just help you find "exercise" you love!
