 Dance is a great form of exercise while allowing you to be as energetic as you like. some estimate social levels of dancing to burn 100-400 calories/hr, while competitive dancers burn 600+ calories/hr. Two to three hours of continuous social dancing can give you an excellent low-impact aerobic workout. Dancing is also a fun substitute for boring exercise programs designed for recovering surgery & heart patients. If you are to dance well , it requires good posture, which helps you breath better, walk better and look and feel younger! Finally, dancing is one of the few activities men and women can enjoy together. It allows people to dress up for an evening out. It's a great way to meet people, make new friends and interact socially. Dancers are the nicest people!Read on.......Credits for the article www.rjdance.com |
