Just Dance
Dancing is a great mind and body workout. According to an AARP, exercise…i.e. dancing, increases brain chemicals that stimulate nerve cell growth. Dancing requires the brain to remember steps and sequences thus improving memory skills. An article in the New England Journal of Medicine found that people that danced at least twice a week had lower incidence of dementia and those with Alzheimer's were able to remember events when they dance to music they used to know. Dancing can help strengthen bones, improve muscle tone, posture and balance; reduce stress, blood pressure, heart disease and depression; and build self esteem, stamina and flexibility.
