Abstract: Physical activity is vital for children to improve their motor skills and overall fitness. This study aimed to develop the Dance Intensive Nimble Activity (DINA), a physical activity model combining trending TikTok dances with short, high-intensity mini-games. The ADDIE model (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, Evaluate) guided the development. The study involved 68 children aged 9-10 years across Central Java and Yogyakarta schools, with data collected through observations, questionnaires, and documentation. Expert validation rated DINA as "Very Valid" (mean score 3.76/4), while children's responses showed high enthusiasm (mean score 3.60/4). DINA was easy to follow, engaging, and beneficial in enhancing motor skills, fitness, and cognitive function. The combination of fun music, simple moves, and ice-breaking elements made DINA enjoyable for children, promoting positive feelings and motivation. In conclusion, DINA is an effective and practical alternative physical activity model for children aged 9-10.
