I had almost the opposite experience.

I used to do a lot of community folk dance (the median age was at least 70), and I dated a guy who was somewhat cocky about inviting me to his kickboxing class. I was down, but a little concerned about embarrassing myself, especially because it was at a very intimidating boxing gym.

I didn’t even break a sweat until 20 minutes in. It turns out, jumping up and down in place for ninety minutes several times a week is really good conditioning for basically any cardio.
