Sports
From the stands
By Anne M irejko
Conditioning pays off
When most people think of exercise they
think of sports. Either running, skating,
cycling or throwing a ball. But as Trirn-A-
Size and other such dance -exercise oriented
programs have shown, there are other
ways.
But dance programs don't have to be used
just for recreation, they can be used as a
way ta develop a talent, such as step danc-
ing or Highland dancing.
As everyone knows, Klompen Feest was
held in Clinton last weekend, and one of the
many highlights were the dance numbers,
The Shannon Preszcator Step Dancers
varied in age, but they all showed energy,
enthusiasm and talent when they were on
stage, as did members of the Cheryl
Bromley Step Dancers. Their many hours of
practicing to get every step perfect, showed.
But those hours were also used to condition
their bodies.
Anyone can memorize steps, but to be
able to keep up the pace for any length of
time is hard. If you've ever been out on the
dance floor, hopping and jumping to a fast
tune, you'd know this to be a fact. My en-
durance is usually two songs in a row, any
more than that and I'll have sore legs for the
next few days.
Maybe I'm just letting myself get out of
shape, but I had to admire the stamina the
• dancers showed. '
