When I used to teach and take dance our favorite artist to do our warm up exercises to was believe it or not Prince. I especially LOVE the Batman soundtrack!!! It had upbeat songs for faster exercises and slow songs for the lay down and stretch ones!! We also warmed up to lots of the various artist CD's like That's what I call music NOW series because they had a variety of music genres all in one CD. Of course when I taught dance all music was screened for language and certain songs were easy to skip over with the remote...thankg god because when was laid down doing leg stretches I did not want to quickly jump up to change songs or CD's....lol!!! When I was teaching basic steps in Jazz classes I absolutely loved using Broadway CD's. With little kids beginner jazz classes i always tried to use kidz bop and disney CD's and sometimes the kids took turns bringing in a CD of their choice!!
If I was to set up my own music with an ipod it would probably have alot of Janet Jackson, Eric Clapton, Michael MacDonald,Rob Thomas, Maroon 5, Aerosmith, Pat Benatar, Cyndi Lauper, Madonna, Stevie Nicks, Prince, Eagles, PM Dawn and of course (if you can't already tell) lots of 80's music!!! I finally found the Eric Clapton unplugged album on CD while at Disneyworld and ill probably be listening to that when I get home from work later on today!!!
