DANCING KEEPS YOU HEALTHY

The cardiovascular system is stimulated, the muscles are evenly challenged, blood circulation is promoted, and your joints are supported. With regular training, the range of motion is maintained even as the years go by.

DANCING MAKES YOU SMART

Music cognition researcher Gunter Kreutz from the University of Oldenburg suspects that dance has played a central role in our cognitive development. The coordinated movement and the complex interaction of the body supports the formation of new synapses in the brain.

DANCING MAKES YOU MENTALLY FIT

The many steps and turns require a high degree of concentration and coordination. A US study has found that young people who dance regularly cope better with mathematical tasks. 

DANCING HAS HEALING POWERS

Dancing promotes the formation of new nerve cells, even as one gets older. This reduces the risk of developing dementia and slows down its progression. In the case of chronic pain, dancing loosens the muscles and can relieve tension.

DANCING BURNS CALORIES 

Another positive effect is the stimulation of fat burning. If you dance a lot, you burn a lot of calories. The body becomes stronger and more toned. And the treats afterwards taste even better!

DANCING MAKES YOU HAPPY

Dancing demands our attention so much that it takes our mind off other things. Dancing releases endorphins – our happiness hormones. Serotonin production is also stimulated, which provides balance.
