Miss the Mall; Choose the Cha-Cha<\/strong>
\nResearch backs up the belief that more and more people are recognizing that experiential gifts benefit not only the\u00a0receiver\u00a0but the\u00a0giver\u00a0as well.\u00a0Researchers at San Francisco State University\u00a0found that people who spent money on experiences rather than material items were happier and felt the money was better spent. And can you really put a price on NOT having to fight the crowds at a mall? Giving the gift of dance from Fred Astaire Dance Studios is not only a wonderful and unique gift idea, it\u2019s also a stress reliever for you.<\/p>\n

A \u201cLike-Worthy\u201d Gift<\/strong>
\nMore and more, people are putting a higher value on experiences over \u201cthings\u201d and it\u2019s really showing strongly with millennials.\u00a0A study by Harris Group\u00a0found that this generation prefers experiences over material things. The same study found that social media factors in the shift. Millennials love sharing photos of their experiences on Instagram, Snapchat, and Facebook. There\u2019s nothing more \u201clike\u201d worthy than a picture of your loved one learning to do the tango at their local Fred Astaire Dance Studio.<\/p>\n

More Memories, Less Waste<\/strong>
\nResearch shows that more and more people are looking for ways to declutter and downsize their lives. The gift that you spent hours searching for and wrapping so beautifully may be appreciated, but it could also go against the receiver\u2019s efforts to simplify. A gift certificate from Fred Astaire Dance Studios is not only a unique gift, it also doesn\u2019t take up much space!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The Gift that Keeps Giving<\/strong>
\nConsider some of the other unique benefits of the gift of dance for a moment. Not only will it be a learning experience, it\u2019s also a social opportunity. Your gift may be just the thing that opens up a whole new world of friendships for someone. And who would turn down an opportunity to have a little fun with their fitness? Dancing is not only great exercise, it\u2019s also a wonderful stress reliever.<\/p>\n

Our Fred Astaire Dance Studio makes it easy for you to give such a memorable gift this Christmas. No crowds, no hassle, and no regrets.
