Fitness Partnership

Where Fitness Meets Ballroom Dance

Created by Louis Van Amstel, LaBlast Fitness translates recognizable ballroom dances—including Quickstep, Salsa, Jive, Foxtrot, Viennese Waltz, and Disco—into an accessible group fitness class.

Why LaBlast Fitness

Accessible. Easy to Follow

LaBlast pairs easy-to-follow, partner-free patterns with equal focus on the physical, mental, and emotional self. Classes welcome all ages and abilities while building muscular strength through weight training, cardiovascular endurance, muscular endurance, and flexibility—an approachable format designed for group fitness.

Patternography

Less Prep. More Confident Teaching.

LaBlast’s Patternography organizes authentic ballroom technique into clear, repeatable patterns. It reduces prep time, gives instructors a dependable class framework, and supports confident teaching in the moment—making it easier to cue clearly, adjust intensity, and respond to the members in front of them.

Multi-club partnership

$0 Certification + 6 Months Free LIF

Multi-club operators can certify up to three instructors at each participating club at no charge ($0). Every certified instructor also receives six months of LIF (LaBlast Instructor Foundation) membership free, including ongoing education, monthly patterns, and support for a consistent launch across locations.

The LaBlast Difference

Patternography Turns Ballroom Dance Into A Teachable Formula.

Patternography is LaBlast’s proprietary method for organizing ballroom dance into structured, repeatable fitness patterns. It teaches instructors why movement works—not simply what comes next—so they can deliver a stronger class with consistency.

Patterns Members Can Follow

Instructors learn how authentic ballroom movement becomes clear, repeatable fitness patterns which makes classes easy to follow.

Teaching In The Moment

Instructors teach adaptable patterns instead of memorized choreography, allowing them to stay present, read the class, and adjust in real time.

Much Less Prep Time 

Instructors build classes by pairing songs with dance patterns they know instead of memorizing disconnected choreography, reducing their preparation time by up to 90%.
