This year was even more exciting here in Idaho with Boise State making it to The Big Dance.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"sqsrte-large preFlex flexIn\">While it may not be the kind of dance we are usually thinking about here at Fred Astaire Boise, we\u2019re always happy to root for the home team. And whether you plan to watch every game or you think March Madness is a psychological condition, dance can help get you through the month gracefully.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"sqsrte-large preFlex flexIn\">Here are three ways dancing can help you survive \u2013 and thrive! \u2013 the bounty of basketball this month. And for all those Boise State fans disappointed that the Broncos didn\u2019t get a win, you can still keep dancing with us!<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"block-yui_3_17_2_1_1679518248278_8275\" class=\"sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html\" data-block-type=\"2\" data-border-radii=\"{&quot;topLeft&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;value&quot;:0.0},&quot;topRight&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;value&quot;:0.0},&quot;bottomLeft&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;value&quot;:0.0},&quot;bottomRight&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;value&quot;:0.0}}\"><div class=\"sqs-block-content\"><div class=\"sqs-html-content\"><h1>Stress Management<\/h1><p class=\"sqsrte-large preFlex flexIn\">Your favorite team blew a 10-point lead and lost to a school you\u2019ve never heard of before.

And if you hear Dick Vitale gush about a Prime-Time Player for the 500th time, you\u2019re going to break down.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"sqsrte-large preFlex flexIn\">Dance can give you an outlet for all that pent-up emotion.
