POST #2 - kickboxing

1. Identify an influence

A factor that had an influence on my participation was the music and the environment we were in.

2. Describe the effect of that influence on participation  (Think about feels like, sounds like looks like)

This factor had a positive influence on my participation because it caused me to get my groove on! I am really used to dancing with music and inside and it made me interested and made it really fun for me. It felt exciting and I was looking forward to the lessons. It sounded up beat and high energy which influenced my participation because it was exciting. It looked like I was putting lots of energy into it and I was engaged in the movements.

3. Explain the effect of that influence on participation

I think this factor had such an influence on my participation because I enjoyed the movements more with the music as it made sense and went with the music which is what I am used to as a dancer. The environment made me feel comfortable as it is in areas where I usually dance and feel comfortable moving in, which made me feel comfortable when performing the kickboxing moves/sequences.
