A growing trend of the dance style that combines dance, aerobics, and energetic African music, afrobeat is a great whole-body and cardio workout to boost your heart rate. It is a fun way to let loose and burn a ton of calories.

Pole dancing
No longer an exotic dance classified as risqué, pole dancing is a popular new way to tone the body, build up strength and pick up some sensual moves along the way. However, it requires core and upper body strength than simply swinging around, and it is definitely not for the faint-hearted. It is a workout that is most definitely an exciting alternative to lifting weights or running.&nbsp; XPole is a one-stop online store for all things fitness pole and accessories.&nbsp;

What to do and see in Hong Kong this October

Fans of the arts are in for a treat in the coming months with a slew of events coming to Hong Kong, including the Hong Kong Arts Festival which runs until 18 March. 
Launched in 1973, the festival showcases opera, theatre, music, dance and more by leading local and international artists.
During this year’s festival, over 1,700 artists from around the world will stage 180 performances, including 16 new works receiving world premieres and 14 Asian premieres.
With so many shows to choose from, picking which ones to see is a bit daunting, unless you have the time to see them all.
To help you decide, we have picked six standout shows to keep even the fussiest of theatre-goers happy.
All My Sons / Theatre
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-16654 size-medium" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/All-My-Sons-at-the-Rose-Theatre.-Photo-by-Mark-Douet-_31B1122_745x497-420x280.jpg" alt="All My Sons at the Rose Theatre. Photo by Mark Douet _31B1122_745x497" width="420" height="280" />
Directed by Michael Rudman, who directed the Tony award-winning play Death of a Salesman on Broadway, All My Sons is based on true events and revolves around love, guilt and greed. 
Like Death of a Salesman, All My Sons was written by Arthur Miller and exposes the corruption of the American dream.
Set during World War II, the play is based around the actions of Joe Keller, a self-made businessman who knowingly supplied the US air force with defective engines, resulting in the deaths of a number of pilots.
The consequences of Joe’s actions come back to haunt him in later life.
