5 Workout Dance Videos to Try on Youtube

April 28, 2021 3 min read 9 Comments

Hello fitness fans! Has it been a minute since we last chatted or is it me? I think it’s me but not to worry, you haven’t been forgotten nor has the need to keep in shape. As a matter of fact, one of the things I’ve been working on (for those of us looking to stay fit and healthy) is a new way to exercise without that icky feeling  of, “but I don’t wanna!”

For me, working out should feel like pure F.U.N.! I mean, if exercising feels like exercising, there’s a pretty big good chance, I’ll ditch it like bad lipstick.

So what better way to have fun getting fit than to dance it out? Well without further ado, here’s some of my favorite YouTube workout videos to keep the bah humbugs away:

*Disclaimer: Always consider any health conditions and check with your primary physician before starting any exercise routine!

  1. The Fitness Marshall

You’ve already been putting your favorite pop/hip-hop/rock/r&b/indie/country/jazz/EDM  song on repeat, so why not add some choreography to your go-to-jams ? Get your heart rate plus your self-confidence rising with these dance workouts: 

  1. Online Dance Classes

Not me attempting to be TikTok famous in the comfort of my drafts folder. It’s now or never ladies.  Let’s make your TikTok dreams come true with new dance tutorials you can try out every week and show you’re down with Gen-Z…we got this!

  1. POPSUGAR FITNESS

If you can’t be pinned down to one style and like variety, then this is the perfect channel for you! Only have time for a quick 5 min workout? There’s videos for that! Want to get your sweat on with a full 45 min routine? There’s videos for that, too! Even better is that there are modified versions of all the workouts if you have any ailments or just want to take it slow. 

  1. Les Mills

So I might have only recommended this because Nina Dobrev from The Vampire Diaries is in it (slay girl!), but I’m so glad I found it! From hip-hop to EDM, the group teaches you some of Dobrev’s favorite dance moves. P.S. Did I mention she completely crushes the routine? Your turn!

  1. MadFit

You know I’ve talked about her before and I’m gonna do it again because I can’t say enough about Maddie.  The girl doesn’t disappoint with her dance workouts. She’s got you covered with a little bit of One Direction to Rihanna to a 90s Mix (I’m looking at you NSYNC); yep, there’s a ton to choose from.

    people are loving dance workouts these days! It is nice that there are so many free options out there

  • Nicole April 29, 2021 at 6:19 am

    Oh thanks for these! This look like so much fun!

    • annaelleliz May 6, 2021 at 7:07 pm

      A fun workout is the best combo! I love the dancing aspect and know I’m getting in a good workout cause I can’t breathe after, lol!

  • Patricia Chamberlain April 28, 2021 at 9:12 pm

    These all look so much fun! I will have to watch each video fully soon!

    • annaelleliz April 28, 2021 at 10:22 pm

      They are super fun and time passes by so quickly you don’t even feel like you’re working out!

  • Amber Myers April 28, 2021 at 3:05 pm

    This would be fun. I am not coordinated so I am sure I will be all over the place. My teen daughter would be good at these though!

    • annaelleliz April 28, 2021 at 10:22 pm

      I’m telling you, these actually gave me some coordination, lol. A few good bumps into furniture and smacks to the face and you’ll be busting moves in no time!!!

  • Serena April 28, 2021 at 1:27 pm

    How fun! I love this idea. I’m missing the gym and this is a great way to get my cardio in 🙂

    • annaelleliz April 28, 2021 at 2:14 pm

      I can’t believe I’m missing the gym too, lol! If you really want the cardio to go up TheFitnessMarshall’s videos get that heart rate going!

    Wow...It's been a while hasn't it? Let's see, where to begin?
•
Well, this time last year, something felt really at odds with my spirit. I realized I needed a break from  social media— more so a break from Anna Elle Liz.
•
Believe it or not, I don’t particularly like spending a heckuva lot of  time on social media. For me, I've found that I’m more drained rather than replenished my when get my scroll on (hmmmp…  maybe someday I'll write  a blog post on that — Navigating Social Media When You Don't Really Like Social Media).Throw in all the viewing, reading, watching & clicking  - and a recipe for a major timeout was brewing. 
•
Nuturing my personal and creative life, my growth made it clear that meeting the demands of Anna Elle Liz was something I could no longer do with the same excitement and vigor I once did.
 •
So, all this to say that Anna Elle Liz will be back (you know I can't miss out on Fall content) but at a slower and less scheduled pace. 
•
You must also know that I can't even think about a return without extending a super big thank you to all of the kind followers/supporters who've patiently waited with me,  during my hiatus. 
•
Cheers to you! Cheers to re-starting content again! And, cheer to reaching 3-years of Anna Elle Liz with y.o.u.

    We all know about the stars of Thanksgiving…the main characters, turkey and ham. But what about the supporting cast, the secondary stars of the show; the side dishes. I mean without the sides, can the main dishes even shine?
·
The stuffing, the creamy mashed potatoes, the corn on the cob, the green bean casserole, the mac ’n’ cheese, … yep, I can take this train to foreverville. For now, I present you with a definitive and completely non-subjective ranking of some of my favorite Thanksgiving side dishes!

If you could only eat one dish for Thanksgiving, what would it be?

    Name a more perfect fall photo 🍎

I love me some pumpkin, but apples are another great fall staple. And there's something about going apple picking with a basket and plaid scarf that feels like I'm fresh out of a New England town.

    It’s that time of year when our thoughts turn to Thanksgiving and the day that is set aside to feel thankful for what we have. 
·
But how can we turn gratitude into a daily habit instead of a once-a-year holiday obligation? 
·
By recognizing the abundance we already have…our family, our relationships, our material things that bring us comfort and our memories, dreams, and hopes.
·
Our lives can be enriched so much if we take the time to be thankful and see the good in all that we have.
