More than likely its a "Contrast bath" for the muscles where you sit in ice for a set period of time and then you go sit in hot water and it helps to soothe muscles. Very effective actually. Some people do that also when their fever gets above 104 degrees.

She sits in ice because she probably injured herself practicing. If you pull a muscle it's best to ice it then apply heat so it heals quickly or something like that. As for the weight question.. just go jogging and the right foods. You can go to mypyramid.gov for the amount of each food group you need to eat for your age/weight. There's also a dance work out video at Wal Mart for $10 and it works wonders! Or you could just go swimming. Hope that helped!!

well.. i can't really help with you ice question, but i CAN help with your weight goal.
there are two choices.
a diet
or excersise.
or if you want to, do both, but remember to do them consistently.
there's this one diet that my cousin was on where he drank only water, not juice or milk or soda. he said he lost about 10 pounds from that.
and then my mom has a friend who also went on a diet, he lost like 30 lbs in 3 months. and all he did was eat yogurt every morning for breakfast.
then there's another guy i know who went on a diet where he didn't eat rice. well he was chinese.. but still try it by eating grain scarcely. I don't know how much weight he lost, but he was so much skinnier than before.
And for some excersises. walking uphill should really help the leg and thigh area. i'm not sure how you'll walk uphill, but i have a treadmill that i can raise.
for your stomach, crunches or sit-ups do help. but many don't think those results show fast enough, so you can try to do pull-ups and chin-ups. it not only works your arms, but it turns out it works you stomach too.
same with jogging or just taking a walk. if you don't want a very intense workout just go for a walk. when walking, distance matters not speed. so it's a low-stress excersise.
if you do one, or maybe two of these excersises and diets consistently, then you should be able to get skinny by june 26th.
