A hobby?

[Karen]

yeah I was thinking of dance too...It's kinda dumb, but I think I'm afraid to take classes cause I think I'll make a fool of myself D: lol

My dad and my sister play piano...my dad is pretty good...I've always wanted to play....

Everyone is expected to make a fool of themselves the first time in dance class! If you didn't, THEN we'd be worried!

I suppose that's true, Karen

I was actually looking into tai chi too...and I have done yoga before...it was ok

How about a martial art using paper - origami.....

I will naturally suggest horse-riding to anyone in need of a hobby, but I realise that it isn't always within everyone's budget. It's very over-priced these days, and even though I am highly biased I know it' worth it once you're hooked!

How about trampolining? It can really help to tone your muscles and anyone can do it. It's great fun learning how to flip and stuff, I always enjoyed it, even though I have very long legs which make moves like 'swivel hips' (seat drop, spinning around into another seat drop) rather difficult!

I've always enjoyed swimming too and it's probably the best exercise you can get. A half hour or so of lengths at your local pool every week will be certain to help get you in shape.

Good luck with whatever you decide!

I used to take riding lessons, actually.I did really enjoyed it but I had some bad spills and I'm sort of afraid to ride now (everytime I get on a horse now it's spooks...like EVERY time)

thanks for all the sugestions...I'll have ot research them

This may sound odd as a physical hobby, but how about photography?

Sometimes to go get a really good shot you have to contort yourself into all kinds of positions, or hike a good deal carrying your gear and tripod. Plus it's an art so as long as it's exposed correctly and in focus no one should make you feel like a 'failure'. Not to mention the side benefits of taking beautiful pix of your furbabies. lol
