Orlando, FL. (August 31, 2012)–Dance Yourself Fit LLC made an appearance at their first, Tropic Heat Jazzercise On Location Convention, which took place June 29-30 in Orlando, Florida.

At the convention, Dance Yourself Fit had a booth set up in the vendor hall to promote and sell their best-selling traction modifiers, Slip-On Dancers^®, which was the only one of its kind at the convention.

“I was very pleased at the warm reception we got at the convention from all the attendees who had never seen anything like our product before,” said Katie Hughes, Founder of Dance Yourself Fit, LLC and the inventor of Slip-On Dancers^®. “It was a great opportunity to get the word out about how our product can help new dancers and promote the business.”  Slip-On Dancers® are an innovative product that turns running shoes into dancing shoes, making twisting and turning easier while reducing the risk of knee injuries.  People who love dance and fitness programs love Slip-On Dancers®because they don’t have to buy dance shoes to participate.
