The Pungra way of teaching

No choreography

There is no routine to learn and nothing to memorise. Participants cannot get it wrong, and nobody is being prepared for a performance.

Teach on the fly from a bank of movements

Instructors build each class from a bank of movements, choosing what comes next as the class goes. See the Moves page for the movements, grouped as warm up, conditioning, plyometrics and cool down.

• Pick the next movement while the current one is under way.
• Repeat movements so people settle into them.
• Match the energy of the music and the room.

Options for every level

Offer a lower and a higher intensity for each movement, so a first-timer and a regular can work side by side. Say the options out loud, and make it clear that choosing the easier option is normal.

Clear cues in a loud, fast class

• Name the movement before you do it, using the same name every time.
• Keep cues short, and give them early.
• Show as well as say: your demonstration is often louder than your voice.
• Keep your face towards the class, and be aware of newcomers.
