Why Dance?

Dancing isn’t just about the steps and music; it’s a perfect combination of physical activity, social interaction, and mental stimulation.

These are some of the benefits from dances:

1. Health

Dancing strengthens your cardiovascular system and improves weight control and overall fitness through calorie burn off. The constant movement and muscle extension during dance sessions creates a gentle stretching and toning. Even otherwise athletic students find their lessons can be a workout!

A number of recent medical studies have focused on the benefits of ballroom and Latin dancing. In addition to the many mental and physical benefits highlighted, several studies have concluded that social dancing can even delay the onset of Alzheimer’s, sometimes by up to 75%.

2. Fun

Although your commitment to learn to dance will demand concentration, dedication and time, you will be constantly surrounded by artistic, cheerful people who will make the time you spend at Fred Astaire Dance Studio a pleasurable and rewarding experience

3. Friendships

Beyond instruction, dance opens a wide spectrum of social settings in which friendships are forged.

Scheduled Fred Astaire Dance Studio group and practice lessons, local, regional and national competitions, trips and fun nights out on the town provide dancers with a full social calendar.

4. Creativity

Dance provides an emotional outlet in which a person can express his or her inner feelings through body movement.

The ability to dance is present in everyone, it only needs to be cultivated through sound instructional methods.
Then you’re on your own, expressing yourself with passion and flair!

5. Confidence

Dancers possess an aura of self-confidence and an ability to enjoy themselves more in public settings.

This often carries over into professional settings as well. Their entire mental outlook takes on a renewed sense of creativity, motivation and energy.

In addition to increased personal confidence, learning to partner dance creates a new access to creativity, communication and collaboration.

It breaks down the barriers to trust and cohesion that interfere with productivity and effectiveness. Ask about our corporate team building programs.
