Need some movement inspo? Here’s what I’d like you to do:  Push aside your coffee table, kick away the rug, and put on your dancing shoes!

Dancing is an easy way to accomplish that.  You don’t need any fancy equipment nor do you need to be a professional dancer.  Just get up, put on your favorite tunes, and get moving.

Here are just a few benefits that dancing offers:

*Improves lung function 

*Great for the cardiovascular system

*Builds strength

*Boosts your metabolism

*Improves your mood 🙂

*Increases your sex drive

*Helps you sleep

*Improves brain health

*Reduces the onset of dementia​
