David
Lloyd Leisure, which offers over 100 gyms across Europe, developed a
new fitness routine based around the various emotes used in “Fortnite.”
The classes are geared toward children and teenagers.
“David
Lloyd Clubs is encouraging kids and teens to swap their controllers for
choreography, as it introduces ‘Emote Royale’: a unique workout class
dedicated to learning the dance moves from ‘Fortnite,'” the health club
stated.
Emotes
are the animations that players can have their avatars display in-game,
some of which are popular victory dance animations.
“The victory
dances that players use to celebrate within the ‘Fortnite’ game – known
as emotes – have become so popular that everyone from footballers to
film stars have been attempting them in the real world. England’s Deli
Alli has ‘taken the L’ in his goal celebrations and Will Smith and
‘Stranger Things’ star, Millie Bobby Brown, have been caught on camera
doing the ‘floss’.”
The fitness classes are just one method of
cashing in on the “Fortnite” craze. If you’re any good, there’s a new
cash-making opportunity to consider: some parents are now reportedly paying “Fortnite” tutors upwards of $20 per hour to help their kids improve their skills in the free-to-play game.

The wildly popular game is poised to grow even further, as Epic Games plans to release the game on Android this summer, potentially growing the playerbase by another 250 million players.
