Dancing is lots of fun. You can learn to dance at any age. It’s a great way to keep your body and mind healthy. Dancing burns calories, boosts memory, improves balance, flexibility, co-ordination. Dancers benefit from improved condition of heart and lungs, energy levels and stamina. Dancing enables you to build social skills, improve self-confidence and self-esteem.
