Take a break once in a while and move your body. At least one minute break every 30 minutes.

Usually my 55 minute fitness dance class has about 12 to 15 songs in it. The songs are arranged that way that the tempo and / or the heaviness of the movements gradually increase during the class. A quick drink after every third song if you want. The first song of the three song set is always physically somehow a bit easier than the two following it. Slower tempo, no jumps or choreography that may require a bit more thought which usually means that your heartbeat stays lower than in easier choreography or with jumps.

When dancing I recommend that you always do the movements according to your own body. If you do not want to or can't jump or do twists, don't do those. Do something else that does not risk you getting hurt. If there are steps or movements that you can't figure out how they are done, don't sweat about it. It's not important if you get the steps or the choreography right, what is important is that you're having fun and sweating because you move. If the steps are too easy for you, you can always invent and add your own moves or jump even if I don't.

Gradually I'll add one song at a time here and give them a number meaning in which order they are meant to be danced so that you get a full 60 minute fitness dance program, but of course ultimately it's totally up to you which ones you want to dance and in which order. I do recommend though that you always start with an easy, a bit slower song just to let your body warm up before leaps or any other quick moves.

This song is meant to be somewhere in the beginning of the program. There are always options for the movements, for instance when going back in the chorus. If you don't want to jump, don't jump. I do both options in the choreography, you just have to choose which one you like. And of course the kicks too, don't jump when kicking if jumping isn't your thing.

Enjoy!

heee... that was fun!

I was quite intrigued with that retro oscilloscope thing... is that a stylish mp3 player or actually an oscilloscope?

It's an actual oscilloscope from the 60's! I was pretty thrilled when I found it from the stuff pile and really exited when I found out that it also worked. And that I just happened to have an extra mini pug splitter so that I could play the mp3:s from my phone through separate speakers and to the oscilloscope.

It took ages for me to get a wave out of it and I almost gave up but finally got it. And it kept overheating when I recorded the dance videos. So after few videos where I didn't get tangled with my feet and everything else was fine except the oscilloscope didn't work, I had to record everything again so that I switched off the oscilloscope between songs to give it some time to cool down.

I guess all the trouble wasn't worth the small wave that is barely visible because I had to use so bright lights but all the hassle sure was fun. :)

I'd like to use more props like that, even if they don't work, a radio from the 40's but what I'm now struggling is the lack of space. Like last Tuesday, I had to clear everything from one room to get enough space to record few lousy videos. :D

Here's the post of that time when I was recording the oscilloscope dance videos. https://peakd.com/hive-193552/@geekdancing/actifit-geekdancing-20200503t153233816z

This made my day ... thanks :-)

Oh, thank you! :)
