FitSteps is the hot new exercise workout devised by Strictly's Ian Waite and Natalie Lowe in conjuction with swimmer Mark Foster, who competed on Strictly,who have taken the best of Ballroom and Latin, mixing it with the latest, proven ways to get fit FAST and deliver the most exciting, fun, FAB-U-LOUS exercise class ever… burning calories in a class, whilst toning, shaping and strengthening your body, core, muscles and joints.
Perfect to help health issues like bad knees, backs, stress and anxiety too. Different level classes to suit all ages to 80! Perfect for mums, new mums wanting to get their figures back, people on weight loss programmes, retired and semi-retired people and people who just love to socialise, love music and love to dance and have fun.
With FitSteps you will tone, shape and lose weight and with high impact and high intensity moves can even burn up to 600 calories in a class which is the equivalent of an intensive circuit training class.... . Hence losing weight.
This amazingly fun workout is based upon all your favourite "Strictly" dances like the Waltz, Jive, Quickstep, Cha Cha, Samba, Rumba, American Smooth to name a few so you will learn some of the proper steps that the professionals perform whilst getting both a cardio and/or non cardio workout, both high and/or low intensity.
You will be enjoying the music and dance elements so much you will not even realise you are exercising and yet the results are extremely effective. All dances can be adapted to low or high impact moves with low or high intensity thus being suited to all ages and abilities and all levels of fitness and health including those with health issues that will improve through exercise.
FitSteps is suited to ages 8 to 80, fully fit and a regular gym trainer or retired with a false knee... everyone can enjoy this incredible, social and fun workout so call me for more information so I can recommend the most suitable class for you to join with like minded similar level participants...... and ladies and gents you DO NOT NEED A PARTNER as this is all danced solo!
No more groaning "oh no I really should get down to the gym" now you don't have to be surrounded by fitness fiends that make you feel uncomfortable and inadequate (unless, of course, you want to bein a class full of super fit people, in which case you pick my advanced class) pick FitSteps and attend a slower or medium paced class with similar aged and ability people - come to to FitSteps instead of the gym and work at the pace that suits you!
You even get the opportunity to attend Masterclasses held by the Strictly stars Ian and Natalie and can attend the Christmas Event at Blackpool should you so wish, to meet up with oher FitSteppers from all over the world
WHAT TO WEAR AND BRING?
Just wear comfortable loose clothing that enables you move without restriction like leggins and a T shirt or similar and a pair of light-weight trainers tthat do not have a rubber or sticky sole - you need to be able to pivot and swivel on your balls of your feet and we don't want to damage your knees so they must not stick to the floor.
Remember this is a dance EXERCISE class not a dance class so no latin or ballroom shoes please. Split sole dancer trainers are perfect if you have them but not jazz shoes as you will be (at some point) jumping/bouncing and so need the thick sole to absorb the impact. Bring a water bottle to keep hydrated and, most importantly, your sense of humour and a smile!
