Karina Smirnoff Dances With JCPenney in New ActiveWear Lines

You know when Inside the Actors Studio host James Lipton asks actors what profession other than their own would they like to attempt? Well, if I hadn't pursued writing as a career, I would have studied dance.

Dance pro Karina Smirnoff

I think dance is the purest form of artistic expression. And it's great that TV shows like So You Think You Can Dance and Dancing with the Stars have put a spotlight on dance and made it so popular. At a recent JCPenney New Year, New You fitness event I had the chance of a lifetime to take an exclusive dance class led by DWTS-pro Karina Smirnoff.

During the energetic dance-cardio class, Karina and participants were dressed in the newest styles from JCPenney's Xersion and City Streets Activewear lines. We were also gifted JCPenney's Bella High Power Juice Extractor and Magic Bullet Blender.

"I'm excited to partner with JCPenney to showcase ways to feel great from the inside out," says Karina.
