Workout

So Thursday nights are when I teach Buns and Abs and Step at Blue; Adult Dance and Fitness. Tonight was focused more on buns but it went really well and we were able to get through all three step combos before time was up.

Here is what we did for Buns and Abs:
Buns-
20 Right leg lunges at 90 degrees
20 right leg lunges with extended step (So taking a bigger step forward with your right foot and then bringing your left to your right).
10 Curtsy side lunges to the right (face one direction the whole time. Start with feet together, step to the right, position the left foot behind the right as if you are going to curtsy, now dip down or squat, and then bring your feet together again and repeat).
10 Curtsy side lunges to the left
10 side lunges to the right
10 side lunges to the left
Squats- While standing in a squat position we assign four different difficulty levels. 1 being legs slightly bent and 4 being legs bent to the point your thighs are parallel with the ground (always keep in mind to NOT let your knees pass over the point of your toes).
10 Squats to level 1
10 Squats to level 2
10 Squats to level 3
10 Squats to level 4

Abs-
30 Second plank
30 second reverse plank
Crunches for 1 minute
Reverse crunches for 1 minute
Full sit ups with legs straight for 1 minute
Always finish with 10 V sit ups.

Our Step workout consisted of the following combinations:

Knee Repeater 8
Knees around the world 16
2 Reverse V-Steps 8

2 Side Steps 8
Chug Kick 8
Over the Top 8
Knee Walk 8

Turn Step 4

Corner Knee 4
Over the Top 4
Repeat

Well there you have it. A sample of what I teach every week! Try it out you won't be disappointed and for your viewing pleasure:

P.S. I think the girl who took this picture photo shopped my butt. I can't decide if that would be a good thing or a bad thing. haha
