These days, most people tend to lead their lives under constant pressure and tension from work, family, friends and the rest of the world. We get so wrapped up with deadlines, having so much to do and trying to do it all, that we start to burn out and lose focus. On top of this, many have personal issues to deal with, such as loss of work, self-esteem, loss of a loved one, gaining weight, etc., which can ultimately lead to depression. It’s time to take action and find something that is going to positively affect you in a variety of ways.
You know you
need to take care of yourself, but are not sure what to do to help to get back
to a healthy, more balanced life. If you’re feeling tense or stressed out, you
might want to grab a partner, turn up the music, and tango! Ballroom, Latin, Country or Swing dancing is one of
the greatest ways which can really brighten one’s stressful life. Studies have shown
that dancing can help to alleviate stress and to lighten your load.
Many times when
someone decides to start any form of exercise they rarely consider the fun factor
that it can involve. This is something really important to consider when making the
decision to take hold of your life and make changes that are beneficial in various
ways. Think about it- if you enjoy what you’re doing, then the results will be
so much better and much more effective. So whether you’d like to learn swing dancing
or want to spice up your life with salsa dance lessons, why not give dancing a try? We tend to be
so busy taking care of everyone else that we neglect to treat ourselves and dancing can be just the way to give back to YOU.
Social dancing
is therapeutic to your health more than just physically. It also heals
you mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Did you know that dancing
elevates our mood by raising
our endorphin levels? This is what allows us to heal from stress and
depression, two of our immune system’s biggest enemies. It also helps to
establish
our self-confidence and self-discipline, as well as improving the
harmony
between the mind and body, giving us a sense of well-being.
Maybe you’ve just lost a loved one and
now you are feeling lost. You’re overwhelmed with grief and are finding it hard
to do anything. Dancing can
really help to lift your spirits, according to a study that tested the effects
of dancing on those with depression. Whether it’s Country dancing or the
Argentine tango, the
abundant flow of mood-improving chemicals that dancing releases means that
kicking up your heels can really help to rejuvenate you. Just one dance session
can eliminate depression, even more so than vigorous exercise or listening to
upbeat music. Dancing leads to a decrease in stress and creates stronger social
bonds, key factors in your overall health. How awesome that something so
beneficial is also so enjoyable.
Remember
when you used to be so confident and your self-esteem was through the roof? But
now, due to issues at work- you didn’t get that raise you expected, your hours
have been cut, you’re no longer the “go to” person, now you’ve lost confidence
in your abilities. Maybe your relationship or marriage has ended and you’re
convinced that it’s all your fault- you feel you’re no longer desirable, you
didn’t do enough, or you feel you’re not a spring chicken anymore and can’t compete
with the younger generation. Now, there goes your self-esteem and because of
this, you are finding it hard to keep going- you’ve lost your incentive to get
up in the morning, socialize, try new things. No worries, there is hope! Got the blues? It just
might be the perfect time to get out there and dance!
Never danced before? That’s OK! If you live in the East Valley of Phoenix, try dance lessons at Dance FX Studios in Mesa, AZ- you’ll be amazed at how healing this can be for
anyone. How about trying out an introductory private dance lesson or joining a group dance class? With private lessons, you will be able to have one-on-one
lessons with an instructor who will tailor your lessons just for you, at your
rate of learning and with the types of dance (s) you prefer.
Group dance classes also provide many opportunities to meet other people. Studies have shown that dancing can contribute to high self-esteem and a positive outlook. It can increase self-confidence and build social skills. Dancing is recreational and entertaining. It creates a social life providing an opportunity to make new friends, to help you to grow, and makes you want to laugh. Isn’t that a great incentive to get out on the dance floor?
Little by little you will find yourself connecting with someone again, laughing, having fun, and before you know it, you start to feel like your old self again, or maybe a totally new and improved you!

We have been proud to witness
first-hand the benefits that taking dance lessons has on our students over the past 12 years.
Those with low self-esteem and lack of confidence have bloomed into self-assured
and outgoing individuals. Some were out of shape or overweight and we’ve
witnessed them getting slimmer, losing anywhere from 10-40 pounds and now
feeling so stoked! Not to mention several who were sad and grief stricken, who
are now happy, active, and involved in life again. Words just can’t express how
rewarding it is to see so many people go through this metamorphosis.
