We love dancing at The Dancing House!   

In fact, we believe it should be "The Highlight of your Week!"

We absolutely love these five reasons why dancing is so important for us and our mind, body and soul. 

1. Dancing is a primary need.

   
   Dancing is natural. If you ask a child to dance, they often will move immediately to the music. It's one of the biggest reasons we focus on teaching littles here at The Dancing House.   

2. Dancing will increase your self-confidence.
   

   People often think those with no rhythm should not and cannot dance. But that’s false! Anyone can learn to dance by taking classes regularly online or in person.  The main reasons come down to self-consciousness and muscle memory. But the truth is, these will develop over time! Take a few ballet classes or learn a tap sequence and start walking taller.  Or experience the first time "performing" in class or on the stage, and feel the confidence exude. 

3. Dancing increases the mind and body connection.
   

   If you're ever feeling down, crank up the music and dance! The physical movement you engage in while dancing is known to reduce stress, anxiety, and depression. It helps our mind and body feel more connected, and classes encourage social bonds, which are proven to uplift our mood and change our overall state. 

4. Dancing benefits your overall health and wellness.
   

   What's amazing about dance is that it works your body from all planes, including lateral and rotational, which turns on and conditions all muscles.  So basically, you'll find muscles you didn't know you had! It offers an endless amount of benefits on your overall health as it’s a great way to stay in shape and improve the strength of your heart and lungs, and psychological well being. The strength and endurance gained through dancing will help keep your energy levels high, and tone and strengthen your body throughout! 

5. And Our FAVORITE Reason to Dance - Dance improves brain performance. 
   

   Scientists have found that the areas of the brain that control memory and skills, such as planning and organizing, improve with exercise like dance. Dance is also attributed to developing concentration levels, good listening, language comprehension skills, and increased focus through movement. Dance is one of the unique movement modems that require you to focus on both the constant changing of movement and recalling moves and patterns.
