Dancing is becoming very popular whether it is ballroom, swing or contemporary.
Dancing and Weight Loss
Researchers say that dancing the Cha cha, Polka, or Swing burns up 650 Calories per hour. Dancing the Salsa burns up to 1000 Calories per hour. What does this mean?
If you go out dancing the Salsa twice a week and spend three hours, but dance for two, then you will take off more than one pound a week. Remember that 3,500 Calories equals one pound. If you dance the Swing dance for two and three quarters hours twice a week, then you will also take off more than one pound a week. That is more than 50 pounds a year in weight loss just from dancing regularly and you never have to set foot in a gym.
Salsa and Swing dances are very popular with the younger crowd. Balboa, a Latin dance, is also popular with the young crowd and is a sexy dance that can lead into the erotic, depending on where your brain is at, that is. Beginner dancers should leave this one alone as it would be too powerful for them. More advanced dancers, who want to get close, just love this dance.
If you like to dance and want to join us when we go to dances, then we would be happy to have you.
