There are many ways to do that...I am unsure of the companies that one should
consult, but a quick call to any facility that gives aerobics classes would
provide that info.
When I was giving the aerobics classes, there were facilities which were
expanding that were looking into the different designs of shock absorption. I
also taught at the YMCA, which DIDN'T use a shock-absorbing floor, and the
difference was just incredible. SOOO damaging and restriciting! I am sure
that high impact activity would cause injury.
Hope that helps,
Heather, PT
