Samba Your Way into Tip Top Shape Physically & Mentally
Ballroom dancing is an incredibly fun form of exercise that also has a number of social benefits as well. It’s not an exaggeration when we say that dancing is beneficial for your body, mind and soul!
As you can imagine, dancing offers a great workout for the body in a number of ways. Let us look at just a few of the wonderful benefits:
Burning calories: Ballroom dance is renowned for its ability to burn off calories. A one-hour session could help you burn off as many as 800 calories, depending on the intensity of the dance.
Building a stronger heart: As ballroom dancing becomes part of your regular routine, you will most likely find that you have a slower heart rate, as well as lower blood pressure and even lower cholesterol. And because dancing requires a great deal of movement, it definitely offers an amazing cardiovascular workout.
Rebuilding strength and flexibility: If you’re recovering from a sporting injury, or just need to get back into shape after a period of physical downtime, dancing is an ideal way to help regain overall body strength, flexibility and movement. Dancing may sound like an unusual exercise alternative if you’re a rehabbing athlete, but a couple of sessions of ballroom dancing will do wonders for your road to recovery.
Beyond the physical benefits, ballroom dancing is also an incredible activity for your mental state of being. Unlike other forms of exercise, dancing is a social activity. It requires you to work together with a partner towards a common goal… And if you don’t have a partner, then dancing is an even better way to meet new people and make new friends! Dancing encourages you to cooperate and develop teamwork skills, putting participants into a better mental state when they leave than when they started.
Improved physical condition. Better state-of-mind. If you are not already dancing, what are you waiting for? Call Fred Astaire Dance Studios today and get moving towards a happier and healthier you.
