Exercise You Can Do Freeze Dance – I will turn on the music and you have to dance as silly as you want but you can’t stay in the same spot… move around! – When the music stops you have to freeze and make a silly face then check to see if your heart is beating faster! – When the music comes back on keep dancing!
