Dancing requires people to be creative, to move their body around in patterns, to communicate with others, all while listening to and interpreting music. Dancing is seen as two types of therapy. Dancing is a mind therapy which improves stress levels, anxiety and social and personal awareness. Dancing is also an exercise therapy which increases heart rate, improves motor skills and balance, and releases endorphins in the body.
Dance Pizazz has seen time after time these changes occurring in each and every student. Students will most often lose weight, improve their personal image, reduce stress, and gain important control of their balance and motor skills. One student recently commented “Dancing improves my balance way more that physical therapy, I wish I could pay Dance Pizazz the insurance money instead”. Another student tells often of being proud that she is following in her father’s footsteps as a dancer.
