Playing any game in the series of Dance Dance Revolution or any of Its clones or variations can be hard work,But with these tips It can become a bit easier

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Lots of water
  • A DDR game
  • possibly ankle weights
  • Drive and determination
  1. Step 1

    This Is an Important step.Before during and after you play
    be sure to drink a lot of water.Let me repeat this DRINK A LOT OF WATER.
    The reason Is because for one thing you don't want to become dehydrated
    but another more Important reason altogether Is to keep your legs from cramping up because If you do not drink a lot of water your legs WILL cramp up

  2. Step 2

    If you are having trouble with keeping time just count 1.2.3.4 In time with the music {this won't work for some songs but those are kind of few}.If you have a home version of the game go into training and turn on the help for a song you are struggling with.

  3. Step 3

    Most of all have fun thats why you started playing Isn't It?If you want to build up foot speed Invest In some ankle weights and you should probably see some Improvements.

Tips & Warnings
  • If you really help establishing rhythm get a metronome and setting to the tempo marking of the song
  • Remember to drink water
  • Do not play until you are about to pass out
  • see a doctor if you are older and wanting to get into DDR

on 8/13/2007 I've seen this game played while I was in college. I didn't join in, but it was fun to watch. Looks like a great workout.
