Dance fitness is popular for a good reason. It is fun, it gets your heart rate up and you can start right away. A dance course is something else. Here is the difference.
What is dance fitness?
Dance fitness is a workout built on dance moves. The teacher shows and you follow. The goal is heart rate and joy, not one particular style. You can drop in any week and keep up.
What is a dance course?
A dance course teaches you one style with technique, steps and musicality. You build on it week by week with the same teacher and the same group. After the term you can dance salsa, hip hop or the style you chose. That stays with you for life.
Which one suits you?
If you want to train without learning steps, pick dance fitness. If you want to learn a style and get a bit better every week, pick a dance course.
Do I get my heart rate up in a dance course?
Yes. Afrobeats, hip hop and reggaeton get your heart rate as high as a fitness class. The difference is that you learn a style on top. If you have never taken a dance course, try one term.
