Be it with a pair of two left feet or otherwise, dance has been proven to improve your overall mood and your mental health.

Recent studies have shown that among activities such as swimming, golfing, tennis, cycling and dancing, only dancing was found to lower the risk of dementia. Furthermore, dance, just like any other physical exercises can increase your “feel good hormones” that in turn will help develop new neural connections, and reduce stress. 

Among all other types of dances, ballroom is one that enables participants to build trust, focus and connection. 

Life is a dance. It has so many variations. You can try them all and pick what you like the most. You can dance in solo mode, dance with a partner or even with a large group. It’s actually fun and even more so if you take classes at Templeton Dance Studio.

Group dances enable socialisation and more rooms to develop friendships. Learning to dance does take focus and dedication, but you will be surrounded and encouraged by artistic, positive and cheerful people who make learning enjoyable and rewarding.

1. Take One Step at a Time

If you do not like the feel of couple dances or group dances, you can dance with yourself. This is one way to build trust and confidence for yourself so you can be more ready to mingle with more people. Learn a routine one at a time. This will develop your mental focus and will serve as a challenge for you to go ahead and make some improvised dance moves.

Among all these tips, the key to making dancing improve your mental well-being is to take it all easy. Do not overthink. If you make mistakes, try again. Natural talent is not required in dancing. You can dance all the way out so you can feel good.  If others can do it, so should you.
