Dancing is like a sport, it brings great health benefits
As if it were an Aerobics or Dance class, learning to dance Salsa or Bachata implies a level of physical activity and coordination that brings positive changes to your body.
As you master each step and turn, your resistance, lung capacity, and elasticity will increase, improving your circulation and helping burn calories.
Fact: Many studies claim that when dancers perform at a competition, the muscular effort and rate of breathing that this entails can be compared to that of cyclists swimmers and Olympic runners.
Goodbye to the hunched posture
Dancing improves balance, coordination and posture
“Boys should lift their shoulders more and girls should move their hips more”, you will hear from your dance teacher, and it is that dancing Salsa or Bachata implies learning from scratch steps that involve coordination, with yourself and your partner, stay upright, balancewhen changing rhythm and maintain certain postures that allow you to keep the rhythm with your partner.
It is a Visor-motor coordination, since you observe each movement, you try to replicate it with the coordination of your body and then you observe the changes of your partner. The coordination of your feet, legs, arms and tame will improve in an incredible way with the dance.
Relieves stress and relaxes you
Social or Group dancing is one of those activities that you must try once in your life, since the environment that exists there is the most fun and relaxing. All people are there to learn, no one is going to pressure you or see badly if you do not get that step the first or second time, they are all in the same boat.
In addition, you will meet many people with different lifestyles and reasons to take dance classes, that interaction and coexistence will make you feel part of a group.
In addition, dancing increases endorphin levels and improves your mood, which will help you relieve stress and fight any depression.
Dancing to feel good about yourself
Studies, work, bosses, receipts, debts, problems with friends, a romantic breakdown, are things that can affect us in a very serious and negative way in our daily lives. We feel that nothing works out for us or that in the end it is not worth doing one thing or another.
Whatever the reason, We invite you to attend Dance Classes, it is a way of saying “During that hour of dancing I focus on myself and learning”, you forget about everything else and seek to improve each step, turn or change, and as you complete it, a feeling of improvement and achievement will come.
As you advance and master each level, you will feel good about yourself, and that feeling can be transferred to many aspects of life; It will improve your self-esteem, give you a goal and help you expand your social circle with the people you meet there.
We hope that with this you will be encouraged to take your first Salsa and Bachata class, you will not regret it!
