Adult Dance Classes in Rehoboth Beach

Why should adults take dance classes and lessons?

There are lots of reasons why dancing is optimal for body and brain health. Dancing empowers us to make decisions in real time. Dancing allows us to take a “brain vacation” – it’s almost impossible to focus on your worries when the music takes hold and you start moving your body!

As we mature, mobility and coordination can start to decline. One of the first places we observe this is our balance: it seems like all of a sudden standing on one foot is exponentially more challenging than it used to be. Getting up from a lowered position presents a greater challenge than it used to. Recovering from a misstep is a scarier experience than it was a few years ago. The good news is that the practice of dancing can help to improve our mobility and coordination over time, including balance! Imagine not only feeling much more calm and coordinated after a misstep, but having a fun method of getting yourself to that point! The dance floor is calling…

Dancing is also a magnificent way to burn calories. Depending on the style of dance, one can expect to burn between 100-400 calories per hour while dancing – and not a burpee in sight! As a novel and exciting method of exercising cardio, dancing can also improve one’s stamina and endurance for other physical activities such as biking or taking long walks in nature. In the Rehoboth Beach area, we have so many beautiful places that are begging to be explored – by dancing you can ensure that you’re able to explore every nook and cranny you desire, even if it takes a bit of walking to get there!

Finally, as we get older it becomes harder to make and maintain friendships. Perhaps you are retired, meaning you don’t have the shared experience of the workplace to bond you to other people. Maybe you struggle to find common ground with other adults and are unsure how to make conversation as a result. At Hearts In Rhythm Dance, we cultivate an environment where you can learn and have fun in a positive environment; suddenly you have a topic of common interest with people from all walks of life! And what’s more, we organize activities for our students both in the studio and around the Rehoboth Beach area so you can socialize at the same time as you use your new dance skills.

Our dance instructors are waiting and ready to show you the ropes and introduce you to new friends! Contact us today to learn more about how we can get you dancing and experiencing the benefits of dance as soon as possible!
