00:00Hello everyone, my name is Angela Rippon and I'm a broadcaster and I'm the founder of a major new health initiative called Let's Dance.
00:10And basically the idea is to get the entire nation dancing and recognising that dance is an exercise that is absolutely perfect for the health and the well-being of our minds as well as our body, regardless of your age or your physical condition.
00:25And as we also have the backing of the National Health Service, it's I think going to help enormously to improve people's health generally throughout the whole of the United Kingdom.
00:36And having met Victoria, I'm absolutely thrilled that this is something that in Northern Ireland you are also going to be involved in as well.
00:44On March 2nd, which we've made National Dance Day, some 60,000 plus dance teachers are going to be opening their doors to the public to say come and see what dance is all about and what we can do to help you get fit, to keep you fit throughout your life.
