Appropriate shoes for FitSteps and line dance classes with Julie Rhoades Scunthorpe

WHAT DO I WEAR?

 

The right footwear and clothing is essential in ensuring your comfort, wellbeing and safety when taking part in classes. Check out the BLOG post for lots of helpful information and suggestions for shoes!

​

FITSTEPS

Appropriate clothing and footwear is essential to take part in classes. For FitSteps and fitness classes, specific fitness clothing like leggings, jogging bottoms with ankle cuffs and gym or yoga tops made from a moisture wicking, stretchy material is essential. Layers are best in the colder weather, you'll soon warm up! Avoid clothing with any restrictive waistbands or seams that may hinder your movements, or fitness trousers that are not close fitting around the lower legs and ankles to avoid any potential trip hazards. Ladies - The importance of a good sports bra cannot be underestimated!

Trainers are necessary to take part in classes, dance trainers with a spin spot and protective cushioning to lessen impact are ideal footwear, but trainers with not too much grip would be also fine. Avoid running shoes as they are not designed for fast changes of direction and  provide too much grip which may cause joint injury when turning or twisting. 

​

LINE DANCE

For line dance, any non restrictive comfortable clothing is fine. If you are wearing trousers, ensure that they close fitting around the lower leg and are not floor length to avoid the risk of tripping. Layers are advisable, you will soon warm up! Securely fitted shoes are necessary, for your own safety slip on shoes, sling backs, flip flops, wedge heels, high heels or stilettos are not permitted. Boots designed to be worn outdoors are not ideal for dancing - they can be too heavy and not breathable enough causing your feet to tire quickly, and probably won't have a suitable sole for dancing. 

Supportive, secure practice dance shoes or dance trainers that allow you to turn or pivot easily are ideal.

DO I NEED A BIG SPACE TO DO ONLINE CLASSES?

No! You can dance along at home in a small, safe and clear space. When filming website content I'm also dancing at home, so I'm mindful you may be in a smaller space.
