Is So You Think You Can Dance a Good Workout?   

Dance is a great cardio workout offering benefits such as 

  • Cardiovascular Benefits. Because of the add-on choreography model, participants are continuously moving, keeping the heart rate up, thus lowering blood pressure, burning fat, and strengthening the immune system. 
  • Core Strength and Balance. Dance requires balance and helps build core strength, which promotes good posture and prevents muscle injuries and back pain by alleviating the work for the extremities. Core stability also reduces risks of falling or injury. 
  • Coordination and Agility. Dance improves range of motion (especially for the hips), enhanced joint and spine flexibility, and a reduced risk of back pain.  
  • Memory. Learning new dance moves and movement patterns and combinations helps with neuroplasticity, or the formation of new neural pathways or connections in the brain. The more we practice, the quicker our brains learn and can process new information. 
  • Confidence. Nothing builds confidence like performance! Learning new dance combinations and performing them in a supportive, judgment-free environment helps improve self-esteem and assuredness. 

How Difficult is So You Think You Can’t Dance? 

4/10. The class is dynamic from start to finish and people of ALL levels of fitness will increase stamina, endurance and may come away with some new dance moves. Dancers, come show us what you got!  Anyone and everyone can take So You Think You Can’t Dance! 

How Long Is So You Think You Can’t Dance?

What Should I Wear to So You Think You Can’t Dance? 

Come ready to play. Typically, people wear sweat wicking clothing that will offer ample coverage and will stay put and allow you to move with ease throughout the range of motion of exercises.  

Cross Trainers, Dance or Walking Gym Shoes.  Comfortable shoes that offer support and stability as you move and dance during class.  (Running shoes are not optimal because they are designed for linear movement and don’t offer lateral support needed as you will be moving sideways) 

What do I need to Bring? 

Hydrate my friend, make sure you have plenty of water with you.  A towel to catch your sweat as you will be dripping and glistening. Most importantly, a great attitude and smile to share.
