You just follow along -- its not complicated if you've had any dance training.
My reaction to this class is in comparison to how I felt when I took my first Nia and Turbo Kickboxing class -- both of which I loved!!! I'm trying to do these classes before I get to to the stages that include interval training/bodyweight matix because I'm not sure I'll want to do them then.

Well it sounded to me like another way of making exercise more fun/palatable to people who might be otherwise adverse to working out.
