Please note that some of the guidelines listed may not align with best practices for dancing. For example, guideline number 4 suggests learning new moves when already tired, which might increase the risk of injury. Similarly, guideline number 6 suggests drinking plenty of soft drinks, whereas it is generally recommended to hydrate with water or sports drinks to replenish fluids during physical activity. Additionally, guideline number 10 contradicts common advice, as warm-up stretches or activities are typically recommended before starting a dance session to prepare the body for movement.
