I thought I was the only one who was doing it as exercise. My mom is visiting me from LA and she made me go buy the CD to take home with her so she can practice and be ready for my wedding.
While I was teaching it to her we both started sweating and really getting into it. Next thing I knew we had the CD on repeat and 30 minutes had passed by! For those that think the workout tapes are too much or don't have the extra time to go to the gym, this is EXCELLENT!!!! If you get into it and work them legs, you will feel it and feel great. I plan on doing it at least 3 X's a week for 15 minutes.
Don't laugh until you tried it!

Now being from Cleveland, which I like to call the line dance capital of the world (yall have no idea, it's a little insane, am I right CT4?), I love the line dances as much as the next person. But I'm cool with just the Trans and JB's Monorail. Some of the new ones are cute, but can't NOTHIN' touch the Trans and JB's Monorail. But yall probably don't know nothin' 'bout 'dat!

Okay, Ideal you are killin me! ROTFLMAO I'm from Cleveland myself--gurrlll, I am on the floor! You didn't go there with the MONORAIL!! Lawd havemucy! I ain't heard that in years!

I hate that dayum cha-cha song! I keep having visions of leisure suits and old men with short sets on and dress socks! HATE IT!!!

LMAO @ the short sets and dress socks!!! OH LAWD! LOL! LOL! LOL!

Girl, I went to a cabaret around Christmas at home, they played the Trans AND the Monorail!! Girl, I was in HEAVEN, you hear me?! Before that, I hadn't heard the Monorail in like 8 years. I hear the Trans here in Columbus, but they don't really know how to do it, you know, putting the dances in it. They be doin' some ol' off the wall type mess. Ain't no place like home! I will never forget about the Monorail! I learned how to do that before I learned how to do the Trans! Girl, you know you learned it when you were like 5!! See, those songs have longevity. The Cha Cha slide will go out just like the electric slide did. I been doing the Trans and the Monorail for what, 20 years. And I'm only 26!

*SIGH* Sweet nostalgia.......

Oh lawd!!!! LOL...why did my husband just go off on me because a new song came on I started to snake my a$$ off You're right some songs just call for some cabbage patch action especially when they SAMPLE a song that you used to patch to.

Yall got to leave the Cha Cha slide alone. Being from Chicago, where it originated, Everybody here loves the Cha Cha. It now has two videos!! But I must say I can't get into the new video from a D.J. here in Chicago trying to compete with the Cha Cha. It has you doing stuff like iron the shirt, and comb the 'do. Real cheesy.

[WhiteCoKlate]

Guuuuuuurrrrrrrlllllll remember we would be at a party til the END and don't let PIMP DADDY come on

I need someone to teach me this Josephine Johnny so I can add it to my repertoire. How about one of you N'awlins folks get a web cam and post it on the net???

[exquizit]

LOL!!!! PIMP DADDY!!
"Well I'm pimp daddy and it's about that time....." I was on the dance floor sweatin' out my perm! LOL!

I remember when you were still kinda safe in your local hole in the wall club........Oh well

The Josephine Johnny is a bit hard to explain...You slightly bend your right knee while tapping your right foot in the rhythm while your hands are balled into fists shaking up and down and your elbows are bent meanwhile you're bouncing your butt. Then mid-way through the song everybody is supposed to catch a wall (hood rats race to the wall)and shake their butt...

LOL...Confusing huh? It's a dance never the less...The song has never ending play in the clubs and parties.

[Bobby Earl]

Well I don't feel old up in here, now.

Yall are gonna make me tie a piece of cardboard to a string and look for someone to break dance against. I might go buy a boom boom box right now.

Um bout to get my centipede on up in this camp. Um with MN, forget the new dances, bring back the OL' school with OZONE and TURBO.

WHAT? Is it in a video? Is somebody doing it in a Nelly or Jay-Z video? I'll be on the look out for it. I *have* to see this. Ideal08...I agree. A five year old is hip and I'm not? Shoot...something's wrong with that picture!
