I sooo remember this topic from many years ago.
Schools are introducing DDR into their gym classes:

As a result of a partnership among West Virginia’s Department of Education, its Public Employees Insurance Agency and West Virginia University, the state has committed to installing the game in all 765 of its public schools by next year. Almost all of its 185 middle schools already use it.

At first, I was totally against it. I thought it was a sucky, lame idea. Then I reflected upon on PE classes in high school - well, what I could remember from the dim mists of time at the beginning of the universe - it this would probably provide more physical activity in a class than I ever got, with the exception of volleyball.

Man, I hated team sports... since most of them require some level of hand-eye coordination and I'm dyslexic I had "issues". <_<

Well, the perfect ddr session (according to my wofe) would involve me, a bottle of wine and some evil bugger taunting me to beat my high score!
Not quite sure how that fits onto a fitness regime...

Not exactly, if it's red wine then it would be helping to lower bloodpressure, so it's all good. :lol:
