Dancing is the second-best way to let the body do the talking, just short of being born with a secondary bellybutton mouth. Elegantly express yourself with today's Groupon: for $85, you get one week of classes in the summer intensive dance program at Jeanne's School of Dance in Mesa (up to a $175 value). Classes run June 6–23, Monday–Thursday, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and dancers must have three or more years of ballet experience.
The professional phalange tappers at Jeanne's School of Dance have been harmoniously instructing students in the art of smooth moves for more than 50 years. During the summer intensive dance program, patrons partake in three to four classes daily, learning such foot-flailing techniques as ballet, contemporary, jazz, Pilates, and the toe-stub boogie. Tap your way into character lessons to forget about your compulsive jazz-hands syndrome, or morph awkward appendages into graceful music interpreters in a modern-dance class. Arizona Youth Ballet's artistic director, Christina Hampton, leads the pack of professional plié producers, harnessing years of experience in performing, directing, and ballet-shoe whispering.

The Groupon Guide to: This Year's Coolest Gadget
Technological achievements have made gadgets more advanced than ever—the only problem is that no one knows which ones are the most must-havingest. Solve that problem with this list of the year's coolest gadgets:
- SolarScoot: This urban scooting transporter, made of imported Brazilian coacaba wood with decals designed by Tristan Cuehlo, certainly isn’t embarrassing for a full-grown adult to be riding in front of other full-grown adults.
- SongDog: Days at the dog park have never been more fun with this urban technophile's dream—a helmet that gently hypnotizes your dog into bark-singing your favorite MP3s.
- MirrorMD: Ideal for the young, health-conscious urban professional, this miraculous mirror reads your skin pallor, muscle tension, blood sugar, and retinal-reaction speed, then recommends that day's mixture of vitamins before predicting your D.O.D. (Date of Divergence).
- UrbanDogHat: Compatible with SongDog and the forthcoming SongDog Pro II, this techno-leap is another kind of hat…that dogs can wear!
