Instructions

Getting Started

1

Make a commitment to yourself and stick to it. Tell yourself you're going to dance and do it.

2

Make a schedule that accommodates your lifestyle. If you only have three free days, don't plan for seven. Be realistic and you won't set yourself up for failure.

3

Play your favorite music. Pick dance music or something with a fast beat. Pick something you enjoy listening to and you won't want to stop.

4

Pick a time when no one is home. No one will see you and you can dance in privacy.

5

Wear comfortable clothing like shorts and a t-shirt. Dance in light socks or with bare feet.

6

Wear headphones to keep you focused when other people are home. Head phones keep out interruptions, noises and phone calls.

Dancing

7

Turn the music up loud so you can feel the beat.

Start slow and work your way up to 20 minutes.

9

Dance fast enough that you are huffing but slow enough to carry on a conversation.

10

Dance for 20 minutes at a time.

11

Dance three times a week to start. You can always increase your time later.

12

Keep the pace steady. Dance any way you want but lose yourself in the music and let the music keep you going. It won't seem like work.
