The more the feet move, the faster the dancers heart rate will increase. Though this style of dancing may not seem like a great workout because of the costumes of the competitive dancers, it is a serious sport. Outside of practicing their dances, these individuals have to strengthen their abdominal muscles as well as their back muscles. A stronger core enables the dancer to kick higher and leap further. If you watched an Irish Step Dancer perform, you would note that they perform the dance on their toes. Simply standing or walking around on your toes becomes increasingly difficult as time passes so these dancers must practice maintaining their balance while on their toes.
