Forever Young

Dancing retards the aging process immensely! It benefits our cardiovascular system and increases our lung capacity.

​FUN FACT: The muscle exertion & breathing rates of dancers performing in one dance competitions is equivalent to those of cyclists, swimmers and an Olympic-level 800-meter runner.

Strong Bones
Dance helps in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis for men and women. For women during post-menopause, there can be a significant drop in estrogen levels which stops calcium from being absorbed into the bones.  Dancing can also help keep joints lubricated in order to prevent arthritis.

Calorie Blaster
Dancing is exercise for our bodies.  It helps us burn calories, while improving our stamina. It is estimated that through dancing we can burn at least 10 calories per minute depending on speed and intensity. 

Better Blood
New research has discovered that it is necessary to measure both good and bad cholesterol levels when determining our health. Dancing aids in lipid control, which raises our HDL (good cholesterol), and lowers our LDL (bad cholesterol). Dancing is also great for diabetics because it aids in blood sugar control and of course increasing blood circulation.

Mental Mastery
Dancing exercises our memory  through the learning of steps & routines. The greatest benefit is that by increasing mental exercise, it keeps our minds young, quick and alert always,

​

A Happy Self!!
Dancing is a mood elevator & raises our endorphin levels. This is what allows us to heal stress and depression – two of our immune system’s biggest enemies! It helps us establish our self-confidence and self-discipline. It improves the harmony between our mind and body, giving us a sense of well-being.
