Is there a way for your watch/Fitbit to NOT count piano playing as steps?? I teach choir and get 8000 steps/class! Lol!

    Depending on your specific device you can change the sensitivity to adjust for this.

    One option if you are not concerned about the heart rate function is to tuck it into your pocket/waistband or wear it on your shoe. The fitbit will pick up your steps but not your arm movements.
