What is LaBlast® Fitness?
Pattern-based. Partner-free. Pure fun.
LaBlast® Fitness is a partner-free dance fitness workout created by world-renowned dancer and coach Louis van Amstel (as seen on Dancing with the Stars). It’s accessible for every level—from absolute beginner to experienced dancer—set to music you love across pop, rock, hip-hop, country, and more.
- Learn patterns, not choreography—mix, match, and make it your own.
- No partner needed—just show up and move.
- All levels welcome—keep it low-impact or add jumps and power.
- Optional weights—light or heavy for a cardio-plus-strength boost.
- Real ballroom styles—from Jive & Lindy Hop to Foxtrot & Viennese Waltz.
“If you can clap it, you can dance it.”

In LaBlast®, we use interchangeable patterns, or “patternography”… not “choreography”. This makes it easy for instructors to teach.

Movements relate to a specific style of dance: Rumba, Salsa, Tango, Waltz, Samba, Foxtrot, and more!
evoke your emotional self
It’s more than just the mind and body. In LaBlast®, we tap into your emotions and “feel” each dance, pattern, and movement.
Unique Movement philosophy
Move your whole body from the inside out. Sounds simple, but so many are in their head. Get out of your head and move your whole self.
