FitSteps Information

FitSteps is the result of a collaboration between two of the UK’s most famous ballroom dancers and Britain’s most successful swimmer! During the long, arduous dance training sessions that are an integral part of Britain’s most successful entertainment show, ‘Strictly Come Dancing’, Natalie Lowe, Ian Waite and Mark Foster had a great idea. They decided to mix together, for the first time, the graceful steps of Ballroom and the up tempo steps of the Latin dances to create a really fun, energetic and effective way to get fit fast that would appeal to everyone, even if they couldn’t dance. After working closely with a group of hand picked fitness professionals to ensure that the programme really delivers great fitness results, Fitsteps was born – a dance fitness programme that is ‘so much fun you don’t even realise you’re getting fit!’ FitSteps is based around twelve of the most popular ballroom and Latin dances and they’re at the stage where the first four, Waltz, Quickstep, Jive and Cha-Cha are ready to rock! The remaining eight dances will be developed over the course of the next few months. The dances have been designed to work for all age groups and all levels of ability and fitness. From the trials FitSteps have conducted so far, where they have had people from the age of 9 to 74 participating, the feedback has been terrific. We are currently recruiting FitSteps Instructors to deliver FitSteps throughout the UK.
