Dancing workout benefits
It really doesn’t matter if you think you can’t dance. Our brains are made to rewire themselves based on use. If you want to try a dance class, go for it and be constant to make your brain and body practice more and more each time. Dancing improves our heart’s health, makes us stronger and preserves motor skills and perceptual abilities. Here are some more specifics…
Memory and Cognitive workout
Dancing is one of the physical activities that helps boost our memory and can help prevent the development of dementia by 76 percent. Dancing will stimulate coordination, focus and memory which leads to stronger synapses. In short, it helps you be sharper in the short term and less likely to develop brain diseases in the long run.
Mood workout
The physical movement, which can also be born from inner spiritual flow, helps release mood-improving chemicals. These chemicals help elevate your mental state, and leave you feeling energized and relaxed. We all need a weekly dose of that combination!

A good 30-minute dance class can burn between 130-250 calories, depending on the intensity of the class. Dancing can target all the areas of your body: core, arms, legs, glutes, back and more.
