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
