How do you ensure students get a workout when teaching Hip-Hop?

Repetition, repetition, repetition. Let me say that again…

Changing too much, too soon, is what makes people stop working out and stand still with that dumfounded, “what the heck?” look. If you’re going to build hip-hop choreography, build it in small pieces, and repeat it enough times not only for the muscle memory to kick in but also so participants can work that new movement hard enough to get their cardio workout.

This presupposes that your participants want to work hard. Some people don’t.
