If you have a tiny dancer in the house, there are some great dance classes in the North Metro area offering everything from jazz to hip hop. Ballet, in particular, has so many health benefits. Not only does it offer your child a creative and artistic outlet, but it fine tunes coordination, builds muscle, strengthens core, and establishes incredible discipline. Practiced with prolonged dedication, it can become a life long passion,… and possibly a career.
Misty Copeland, the first Black principal dancer of the American Ballet Theatre told Harvard Business Review that at a young age ballet gave her “stability and a release for things I couldn’t communicate. It allowed me to blossom and grow, feeling that I was good at something for the first time.”
Even as we age, the participation of women in ballet over 50 has increased like never before offering a social activity that not only increases bone strength, but mental and physical wellness. Additionally, The National Library of Medicine reports that dance (for both genders) increases cognitive ability, flexibility, and balance – key factors for overall health. One of the best things about dance is that you can begin early in life but it is also never too late to start.
