Music can have a huge influence on your mood and performance, setting the tone for whatever you’re doing. The right song can help you relax, make you smile or make you dance. When training or in dance class, this can have a huge impact on your performance. Research has even shown that listening to music while exercising leads to higher levels of endurance, power, productivity and strength. So let’s put on some of our favorite jams to help improve our performance! We’ve featured three Spotify accounts that have put together some of the most perfect playlists to pump you up while training and dancing. Head on over to Spotify and check them out today!
