What are the benefits of dance?

Dancing is great for physical and mental wellbeing.

  • It helps with core strength which helps to improve your balance and posture.

  • It is a form of aerobic exercise that strengthens the heart and improves circulation.

  • It exercises various muscle groups, leading to increased strength and toned muscles.

  • A great way of having fun whilst calories are burnt!

  • It is fun and enjoyable, it boosts your mood and releases those feel good endorphins.

  • It takes your mind away from the stresses of everyday life and you are totally in the moment!

  • Engaging in social activities such as dancing, gets you out of the house, a change of environment where you can chat to like minded people.

  • Learning new dance routines stimulates the brain, enhancing memory and cognitive skills.

As people get older their joints can get stiffer.  Exercise helps to keep our joints healthy by keeping ‘juice’ in the joints!  Dancing helps keep our bones strong and our muscles in good shape.

Come along and see it for yourself with a Seated Movers Free Taster class.

Seated Movers

Seated Movers is the latest branch of Dance Movers. We felt that people should still be able to enjoy dancing even if they feel they could not manage a standing class.  This class is aimed at Seniors, those who have limited mobility or those who are recovering from injury or illness.

Seated Movers will help improve core strength, leg strength, mobility & flexibility, all key in fall prevention.

Dance, Stretch, Smile with Seated Movers;

Dance - Sitting down to dance not only supports the person, the chair is a useful tool to improve fitness and aid strength. Chair exercise can help with building strength in the muscles, ligaments and tendons.

Seated Movers will help to improve posture and cognitive skills, it is a work out for the brain too!

Stretch - As we do steps this helps to strengthen the bones which is very important as we age.  The movement and stretching helps with flexibility and mobility.

Smile - The movement, along with the great music, certainly lifts the spirits and can help alleviate symptoms of depression.  We finish with a cup or tea and a time to chat, meet new people and form new friendships which all helps to naturally bring a smile to your face.
