With the holidays come the mountains of sweets and treats, along with stress. Help fight stress and calories with dancing! Whether dancing in the living room or taking a class, getting moving is a great way to keep the mind and body in shape.
Dancing can help drop pounds, build muscle tone, and challenge your mind. According to the Journal of Physiological Anthropology, studies have shown that dancing is as good for the body as jogging or cycling. Researchers at the Journal of Applied Gerontology found in a controlled study that “partner dance and musical accompaniment can help bring about stress relief.” With all the demands of the holidays, everyone needs stress relief and extra energy. Grab a friend and start dancing today and get ready for the holidays!
