When it comes to St. Patrick's Day, healthy activities aren't typically on the top of the list of festivities. And no, beer cannot be counted as a vegetable just because it's green.
Which makes me think about an Irish experience that is good for you: Irish dance. You don't have to be in "Riverdance" to do the steps -- the basics are easy to learn as this video demonstrates. I can attest to how fun it is -- last year for my mom's birthday we surprised her with a lesson. It's hard not to have a smile on your face when the sounds of the tin flute and fiddles kick in, and once you get going it can be some serious cardio.
So what are you waiting for? Try it for yourself. I can guarantee your friends will be impressed if you kick up a few steps tomorrow.
