Line as interesting enough to participate in for 45 minutes? What if it were offered on a
regular basis at your church, would you be interested in participating?
So today we're going to do a little Soul Line just for 20 minutes. I will lead you through a
series of three popular Christian-based gospel songs of varying tempos. Don't worry, I
am an ACE certified group fitness instructor as well as CPR/AED certified with the
American Heart Association so I will start with the basic moves and provide
modifications for those who need them.
After those 20 minutes, I will give you my questionnaire to fill out. The goal of this
exercise is to experience what Soul Line is and to participate in it for more than one or
two songs. Then decide if you would consider this an activity that you would be
interested in participating in as a form of exercise for 45 minutes on a regular basis.
There will be general demographic questions then they will cover your beliefs about
your ability to do the dance, your subjective task values (meaning the level of
importance and interest this activity would be to you), intention for future participation
and the level of effort you think you would be put into this activity. Then it will ask you
about your general physical activity engagement throughout the week.
This is set to be a fun activity so do your best! Feel free to grab water in between songs
as needed. Are there any questions before we get started??
If not, let's do a quick gear check. There is a risk of tripping so let's make sure our shoe
laces are tied, our pant cuffs are rolled up if too long, and we are about arm's length
away from the person next to and in front of us! Also, there may be a turn or two in the
routine. This may cause dizziness for some people. I will have modifications that are
very basic which will omit any turning as an option for you. Remember, this is YOUR
experience. Listen to your body and only do what YOU can do!
You have the consent form in front of you. I have explained to you the reason why I am
doing this research and what I'm planning on doing today. Participating in this activity
and filling out the questionnaire is totally voluntary. All of the information will be kept
confidential and only used for this research purpose. If you would like to participate
today, please sign out the consent form and we will get started!54
