Try These 9 Follow-Along Dance Workout Videos On YouTube
Living a physically fit life is fun at first until you notice how repetitive your workout routine can be. To keep your motivation high for fitness, you should incorporate dancing as part of your fitness program.
What I like about these dance workout videos with you is that you can also use them as inspiration for your showcase dance at pro cheer squad auditions. Without further ado, here are 9 dance workout videos you can easily follow along from your living room or home dance studio.
1. 40-minute Reebok x Les Mills BODYJAM Workout
This video is one of the easiest to follow because the music they use is Drumstep. You can move comfortably to each beat and transition based on the verses and bridges. Plus, the instructor guides you with a high-quality microphone so you can follow along smoothly.
2. 30-Minute Island Vibes Cardio Dance & Booty Toning Workout
If you want smoother movements with higher energy output, check this video out. It starts with a small exercise to warm up your breathing. It doesn’t matter if you can’t keep up to the instructor’s pace because the counting for the routines is plenty. You also get to take a short water break so you don’t get exhausted.
3. 15-Minute Bounce-Back Cardio Dance Workout
Haven’t exercised for a while? That’s okay. Just like the video from #2, this dance workout from POPSUGAR Fitness also starts easy. If not, it’s even more light. The difference is that this version is much shorter and emphasizes improving hip to lower body flexibility.
4. Tones and I - Dance Monkey | MYLEE Cardio Dance Workout, Dance Fitness
For aspiring pro cheerleaders who are just getting into dancing, this workout video is the best to ease your body into intermediate dance routines. It’s a low-impact and low-intensity dance exercise which is also friendly to those transitioning from a sedentary into a fit lifestyle.
5. 30-Minute Cardio Latin Dance Workout
Following along to a dance workout video can be boring if the instructor doesn’t sound enthusiastic. With Nicole Steen as your host, you’ll be grooving happily and sweating out to slow and fiesta Latin music.
6. 20 Minute Beginner Dance Workout - Hustle, Salsa, Merengue, Cha-Cha, Rumba, and Jive
Every aspiring pro cheerleader needs an inspiration of what dance to perform at the auditions. For those looking to perform something Latin, Amanda from 375 Dance Studio will guide you all the way.
7. 15-Minute Cardio Dance Workout
If there’s a low-impact high-intensity dance workout on this list, there’s also a high-impact high-intensity one. This video is for those who are already living a fit lifestyle but want an exercise that’s new and fun.
8. Dance Party Cardio Workout
To those who are easily distracted by the instructor’s talking during a follow-along, this video might just be right for your learning preference. The instructor doesn’t talk and the music she uses are from the mid-2000s which you can vibe with easily.
9. Easy to Follow 10 Minute Salsa Dance Workout
Another source of inspiration for those who want to do a Latin dance at the audition is Amanda’s Salsa Dance Workout from 357 Dance Studio. Here, you start from a warm-up into basic salsa routines. The end is then a full salsa dance.
Bonus tip: Tie your hair with a silk scrunchie as you dance so that you won’t be distracted. Silk scrunchies are best for dancing because they don’t cause too much friction as your hair tosses to your movements.
