Dance safely
- Before dancing it's a good idea to do a warm up and some gentle stretches, and to have a cool down at the end. Try marching on the spot, and a few jumps and shakes of the body, tensing and releasing muscles in time to the music.
- If you are looking to join a class, select a suitable level for your experience.
- Follow any safety instructions you are given by the teachers.
- Do not attempt any moves that are beyond your level of ability or that you cannot do safely due to lack of experience or a medical condition.
- Wear clothing that you feel comfortable in.
- Always wear suitable footwear, such as dance shoes or dance sneakers, or dance barefoot where safe (but never dance in sandals/flip flops).
- Don't wear shoes with high pointed heels unless you are experienced enough to wear them safely.
- Avoid dancing near obvious hazards such as steps, furniture, railings or pillars.
- Frequently check the location of other dancers and objects around you.
