The Harlem Shake Dance Phenomenon – Fit and Awesome Style
You’ve probably heard of the Harlem Shake by now – the song by Baauer and the viral video craze that’s sweeping the internet. The videos are fun to make, easy to edit, and pure entertainment to watch. What’s not to love?
This past weekend my husband and I went snowboarding in Mammoth. We stayed in a cabin with 16 people and our group of friends decided we were going to create our own video, Mammoth Mountain style. It’s easy to get something like this together when you’re in a house full of people and everyone has lots of winter gear and equipment with them. It made for great props. Without further ado, here it is:

Harlem Shake Mammoth Mountain Condo Style
What do you think? How did we do? Can you guess which one I am in the video?
We had a lot of fun making the video, but it created a huge mess and was a big pain to clean up. Oh well, it was a fun adventure!
Since we got back and edited our video, I’ve been watching lots of different renditions on YouTube. They’re so entertaining! Here are some of my favorite videos I’ve seen this past week. They are all “Fit & Awesome Style” and related to either fitness or something awesome. Enjoy!

Harlem Shake Matt and Kim Edition – Love this band!
These are some of my favorites I’ve seen that can be related to health and fitness. I know the Matt & Kim one is not, but their music is just so fun and so are they and if you haven’t heard of them yet you need to listen to them!
What about you? Do you know about this crazy internet fad right now? Have you made a Harlem Shake video? Do you plan to make one on your own? Post in the comments and let me know!
The Lululemon one is a bit alarming…warning–guy in a thong! Ouch! 🙂 Happy Friday.
