What happens at a Social / Practice Dance?
A Social or Practice Dance is just that, a chance to practice what you may have recently learned in a class, brush up on steps you forgot how to do, or just a good social night out dancing. There is no tuition on the night but our teachers are on hand if you need a bit of advice, or have any questions. Everyone is welcome Singles or couples, regardless of where you currently dance. Even if you only know one or two basic dances, watch others dance, it will inspire you!
Dance at 8 ~ Always a good night out!
Why dancing makes us happy?
When we dance our brain releases endorphins, neurotransmitters that create a feeling of comfort, relaxation, fun and power. Music and dance do not only activate the sensory and motor circuits of our brain, but also the pleasure centers.
Indeed, neuroscientists at Columbia University say that when we move in tune with the rhythm, the positive effects of music are amplified. Therefore, a little secret to make the most of the music is to synchronize our movements with the beat, so we will be doubling the pleasure.
However, the magic of dancing can not simply be reduced to brain chemistry. Dancing is also a social activity that allows us connect with the others, share experiences and meet new people, which has a very positive effect on our mental health.
What’s more, as we move, our muscles relax to the music, which allows us to free ourselves of the tension built up during the day, especially the one accumulated in the deepest part of the musculature.
