Dancing Benefits: Health, Joy, and Community in SaddleBrooke Squares

Dancing is an inherently experience that we use to celebrate joy, commemorate life events and perform rituals across cultures. Beyond these expressive benefits, research confirms the significant health advantages of regular exercise, including strengthening muscles and bones, reducing fat, improving cardiovascular efficiency, lowering blood pressure, and enhancing cholesterol ratios. Dance shares all these benefits with other forms of physical activity.

But dance's unique appeal lies in its music, which stimulates pleasure centers while engaging sensory and motor circuits of the brn. For instance, dance has been credited for enhancing balance, gt and overall quality of life among individuals living with Parkinson's disease or related movement disorders. Several studies indicate that learning to perform dance movements can lead to greater cognitive improvements compared to walking.

Square dancing offers a comprehensive package encompassing these benefits while also providing joyous entertnment through music and interactive patterns. It is an aerobic, low-impact workout with continuous body motion without excessive fatigue, as participants step rhythmically in time with the music to form moving square configurations.

The SaddleBrooke Squares Dance Club took part in the ninth annual Hummingbird Hoedown Square Dance Festival held on January 12 and 13. This festival featured Tony Oxine, a renowned caller from North Carolina who has been calling dances since 1974 and made it his full-time career in 1980.

Throughout the event, Mr. Oxine energized participants with high-quality music and choreography, showcasing his beautiful voice and deep understanding of musical genres. The club members enjoyed a memorable week filled with laughter, dancing, and an unforgettable experience.
