Benefits of Dancing for Seniors

Who doesn’t love to start swaying their body or tapping their foot when they hear a fun song on the radio or one that brings back a great memory.

Not only does it put a smile on your face but dancing along to just a good ole song is good for the body and raising spirits. Dancing is an excellent activity for seniors. It can help provide seniors with many benefits:

  • Improving balance
  • Cardio/Fitness
  • Mood
  • Maintain well-being
  • Keep you active and social
  • Strength
  • Improve posture
  • Flexibility
  • Relieve stress

Whether it is dancing alone or with others it is a great activity. Looking into dance lessons is a great opportunity to meet others with same interests and to learn to dance.  Local establishment, Venue 3130 (3130 W Central, Wichita) offers dance lessons with instructor Jim Farthing. Lesson content rotates so you can attend when it’s convenient for you.
