Benefits

Besides having fun, dancing is a great activity to improve people’s physical, social, and mental well-being. Here is a list of benefits that ballroom dancing has to offer:

1. Fun- You will have a lot of fun dancing while adding excitement to your life. Learning to dance will be a rewarding experience.

2. Health-You will get a great work out with ballroom dancing. It is a cardiovascular exercise that can help increase endurance, strength, and flexibility. The great thing is that you won’t even feel like you’re exercising.

3. Social Life - You will get many opportunities to meet new people. At NDSU, dance classes are offered (more information on Dancing at NDSU page) and you will meet a lot of people there. You will have more confidence interacting in social situations.

4. Relaxation- You will have something in your busy schedule to look forward to. Dancing will provide you a chance to relieve stress and focus more on yourself.

These are just a few of the countless benefits of ballroom dancing. I encourage you to go out, try it and have some fun! You will have a new hobby and many new friends.
