THE BENEFITS OF DANCE CLASSES for ADULTS (as well as children)

Firstly, it gives the brain a "youth makeover". Recent scientific studies show dance is "unusually beneficial". As well as being physically active, dance classes require individuals to learn to multitask - learning a sequence of steps, memorise the order, and execute them in time with the music. A recent BBC programme highlighted the real benefit of dance classes, by analyzing their base level of intelligence and reflexes. A series of tests monitored decision-making, working memory and judge how quick objects move through the air.

The same tests were made immediately after participants completed a dance class, and tests improved in all areas by up to 18%. This was after 1 dance class!! Dance proves to reach the other parts other exercises cannot reach - ie the brain. And as steps are updated and developed, people are always challenged by the varying routines on offer, increasing mental awareness and capacity.

Our teachers make you feel at home, so any initial apprehensions soon disappear, and you will find yourselves immersed in a fun activity that benefits MIND and BODY in a FUN ENVIRONMENT.

AND IT'S FUN, SOCIAL, and VERY UPLIFTING!
