SHiNE LIGHT is a branch of SHiNE Dance Fitness specializing in low-impact and simplified choreography. SHiNE LIGHT uses all the same routines that you will find in SHiNE, but we reduce impact, increase stability and modify the moves to meet the needs of our students. It is a mood-lifting, confidence-boosting experience for anyone needing a more inclusive approach to dance fitness. We believe everyone deserves the FUN that dance provides. Join us! It’s your time to SHiNE!
EFFECTIVE
SHiNE LIGHT combines cardio and toning for a well-rounded, whole-body workout for all levels.
CURRENT
We take hit songs students are rocking out to in their cars and bring them to life with original choreography released each month.
INCLUSIVE*
The SHiNE dance floor does not discriminate. All are invited, embraced, and celebrated!
CREATIVE
SHiNE LIGHT choreography is more than 8-counts. Every routine feels like a mini-performance, encouraging self-expression and confidence.
CONSISTENT
All SHiNE LIGHT Instructors are trained to provide the same quality workout. Whether online or in a live class, you’ll feel right at home.
*One of the above promises of SHiNE DANCE FITNESS is INCLUSIVITY, and SHiNE LIGHT was created in part so we could follow through on that promise to make SHiNE more accessible.

STUDENTS WITH LIMITED BALANCE, STABILITY, OR CARDIOVASCULAR STRENGTH
