My Body, My Rhythm, My Voice
My Body was a behavioral intervention informed by the social cognitive and self-determination theories. Based on the discussions and a systematic review of the literature, we designed the 8-week, 3 times/week rumba physical activity intervention. The goal of the intervention was to gradually increase all participants' physical activity levels to achieve significant health benefits. As part of the physical activity intervention, participants were also taught by their instructor during each class how to utilize behavioral and cognitive self-regulatory skills to increase and maintain their physical activity participation. Examples of such skills were action planning, coping planning, counter conditioning, self-evaluation, among others.
