This community exercise group meets in Wuyi Square, Fuzhou Fujian China for vigorous aerobic dancing.
Public square dancing or plaza dancing, is an exercise routine performed to music in squares, plazas or parks of the nation's cities in China. Once considered 'Granny Dancing', Plaza dancing has become popularized to younger generations, and it's no longer just for the ladies! Walk into any public square or park and you will find hundreds of dancers among dozens of groups, each with their own music broadcasts. Everyone is welcome and there is very little skill required to get started. The simple and natural movements make it a popular exercise that anyone can take part in and enjoy.
The popularity for communal dancing can be traced back to the 1990s, when many people lost their jobs at state-owned companies as China adopted more capitalist practices. People had lots of time, a desire for health and entertainment, but with less money as well as lacking public facilities. Dancing in public parks solved some of their difficulties and become the perfect option for low cost fitness and comaraderie. This interest heated up in 2008, when the government encouraged a national-wide fitness program to welcome the Beijing Olympics.

Most of these groups are free to try and small donations for the instructor and music are appreciated from regular attendees.

This song, 'Little Apple', has been plaza dancing favorite since its release in 2014.
