Burn Fat,But Have Fun Moves:

1st Move: Jump Jump Squat

A. Start with feet hip width apart. Jump up on left foot,hugging right knee to chest. Land back in the starting position. Now repeat on the other side jumping on your right foot to hugs your left knee in to your chest & land back to start position.

2nd Move: Lunge Double Knee

A. Start with feet wide. Pivot left at your waist and lunge to touch your right hand to your left foot. Now switch to the other side and pivot right,lunging to touch your left hand to your right foot. Then stand up and use the momentum to do a 360 spin on your left toe and end the spin by jumping your feet out with arms in front of you. [ If you don't want to do the spin,try doing a jumping jack instead ] Repeat for the entire song or three minutes.

3rd Move: Toe Arch

Oh! The third one is so very fun. =]
I'll have to try out the others, soon.~

These are the more classic toning moves.

First: bicycle.
Lay on back, bring knees up (feet up.)
Bring hands to each side of your head, elbows bent.
Pull one knee up, reach out with opposite elbow. Crunch.
Repeat, repeat. Speed up crunches until you're basically bicycling.

Second: Russian twist.
Sit, pull knees up and spread feet flat apart.
Use a ball, weights, or nothing for this.
Twist from side to side, focusing on core muscles.
Keep weight/ball close to the ground each twist, but not quite touching.

Or:

I practice belly dancing and do a lot of lunges and plies. They help build and tone muscles, which burns more fat.

I'll look into seeing if there are useful videos or websites, but it is best to take a class or at least buy a profession DVD.
