Groove Motion DDR is an exercise program with a Dance Dance Revolution theme. Announced in 2008 by Konami, it has been in production since 2006 and is part of Konami's fitness series. It is not so much a game as it is video instruction for aerobic exercise and utilizes dance mats that are there for self-positioning and are not attached to the computer. Up to 24 people can participate at one time, requiring a large amount of space to accommodate everyone. A projector is used instead of a TV to allow everyone dancing to see the screen. While dancing, waistband pedometers are worn to track individual workout stats.

Famous quotes containing the word motion:
“It is the fixed that horrifies us, the fixed that assails us with the tremendous force of mindlessness. The fixed is a Mason jar, and we can’t beat it open. ...The fixed is a world without fire--dead flint, dead tinder, and nowhere a spark. It is motion without direction, force without power, the aimless procession of caterpillars round the rim of a vase, and I hate it because at any moment I myself might step to that charmed and glistening thread.”
—Annie Dillard (b. 1945)
