For years, it was the same old “one, two, three, four” during group exercises for students at Zhenguang High School in Guangzhou.

Students used to think their exercises were boring. But now, the school’s 700 juniors have a fun, new way to do them.

To get students more interested in exercise, the school asked students to create a set of group exercises for themselves.

Can you guess what kinds of moves the students chose for their new group exercises? Some are like aerobics (健美操), and others are like the Para Para dance.

“The old moves aren’t as relaxing as the new one. The new moves are livelier than the old ones. They are better for juniors.” said li Yanbin, a teacher at Zhenguang.

  During breaks or after class, students sometimes talk with their P.E. teachers about their exercise moves. If the students have good ideas, teachers might even make changes to the moves. If the students think one move is too difficult, teachers might practice the move with them together.

Students don’t just get to choose their moves now, they also decide what music to use during exercises. In the past, the music they used was always the same kind. Now, each exercise uses a different song. Students can take their favorite music to school and ask their teachers to use it for exercise. “The music is so strong, you just can’t help but dance to it.” said Xiao Xiao, a 13-year old girl in Junior 1.
