Why you should dance more often

Let go of the hips and shake those buttocks. Many people like to have a nice dance every now and then. Do you actually limit it to the nightclub, but would you like to dance more? Then let this be a sign, with 5 reasons to dance more often.

1. Great workout

First of all, dancing is of course a physical activity, so when you do this, you immediately get a good workout. You target strength, flexibility and endurance. You can burn about 250 to 400 kcal with just an hour of swinging.

2. Good for your brain

Not only will your body enjoy the benefits of dancing more often, your brain will too. A study from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine found that dancing is the best exercise to improve cognitive skills. 76 percent of the participants showed that dancing showed fewer signs of dementia than, for example, people who read a lot. Interesting!

3. It makes you happy

Dancing is a good stimulant for the production of endorphins, the substance that makes you feel good. If you dance more, you will be a lot happier and you are less likely to develop depression. We’re putting on our dancing shoes.

4. It’s good for your health

We already wrote about a good dance workout, but it is actually very healthy for your general condition to swing more often. This strengthens your muscles, improves blood circulation and reduces tension and stress. And all that with just a few hours of dancing a week!

5. It boosts your love life

Are you and your loved one looking for a new, healthy challenge? Then take dance lessons together! Dancing with a partner is super intimate and very romantic. This will boost your relationship and also give you all the other benefits. For example, you can figure out Salsa, Tango, Foxtrot or Samba together. Another plus: on your wedding day, your first dance will be a real hit.
