Dear readers. Please excuse me as I interrupt your regularly scheduled reading for this DANCE break! I ran across this great video yesterday and I just needed to share it with you. But before I do, let me share with you that “Jumpers” is a word that folks in Britain commonly use to describe what us Americans commonly call “sweaters”. And second, let me state that I can indeed count, but 5 Jumpers Jumping just doesn’t scan right with the song. (Think FIIIIIIIIIVE Golden RIIIIIIIIIIIIINGS!) Anywho, enjoy:

Even with my busy schedule, I manged to watch this an embarrassing number of times. AND I downloaded the full track of the music. AND I even checked out the place you could buy those fabulous sweaters, I mean jumpers. Oh, and by the way, if you just can’t bring yourself to buy a sweater you only wear to one hipster party per year, you can always buy a DIY Holiday Sweater Kit.
I love to watch people dancing. But I love to watch people who don’t look like stereotypical dancers even more.
That’s why I was so excited yesterday, when I ALSO ran across this new project being launched down under called “Nothing to Lose”.
It’s a dance production featuring amazingly talented fat dancers. You can hear about it here:

So I hope you enjoyed today’s unscheduled dance break featuring deliciously wonderful dancers who have inspired me to shake my groove thing today. Remember, whatever is going on in your life, and whatever else you have scheduled today, I hope you get a minute to get up offa that thing!

Lots of love!

This is my favorite post by far! I love the videos of “untraditionally built” dancers moving their bodies so beautifully! I am so inspired – I think I saw myself in one of the dancers (well, except I don’t dance much- but I’ve gotta do it now!!)!!!
Yay! Let’s boogie!
