HOW COORDINATED DO I HAVE TO BE?
Let's put it this way -- Lauren can do it! Ha! It usually takes a few (five)
BODYSTEP™ classes before you start to feel comfortable on the step, but
don’t give up! With each class you attend you’ll feel more at ease and
eventually totally alive with BODYSTEP™. Start on a low step height and focus
on your feet before trying the arm movements. If you get lost in a move,
continue stepping with a move that you feel comfortable with until you feel up
to the challenge. Our Learn the Moves section will also give you a good place
to start from.

A TYPICAL CLASS...
Each of the music tracks in a BODYSTEP™ class has a specific exercise focus. Together they
create an energizing, full body workout. Remember that BODYSTEP™ caters to all fitness levels
and you can increase or decrease the intensity of the workout by raising or lowering the height of
your step.
1. A typical BODYSTEP™ class will first take you through a warm-up, and then it’s onto the basic
movements, where you’ll learn how to step correctly. We’ll gradually lift the intensity and range of
movement.
2. You will then start to break a sweat as you lift the energy and your heart rate up to the first two
fitness peaks, each followed by recovery time that focuses on strength and toning. Next is the party
track, followed by the speed track. The third and final cardio peak gives you the option to really
push it. This one is a physically challenging combination of moves so remember to give it all you’ve
got.
3. Phew! You’ll then be able to catch your breath and move to the floor for conditioning work on
the upper body and abdominals. Then you’ll stretch it out as you cool down after an intense
workout.
