Step count

My watch does not count steps when I am using one of the Apple Fitness routines. I am usually using the dance or HIIT routines. I am definitely moving but it does not count steps. Is that a malfunction or is it just not going to count steps?

Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 8

that response does not address my question. My watch counts steps all day and I can get heart rate and O2 saturation anytime I go to that app. It does not count steps while I am dancing. All other functions work well but if my step count was 5000 before I started dancing, it will be 5000 after I end the session. I would like to have some sense of how many steps in a 10 minute routine. Won't it count steps it count steps in that function?
