DanceCLE
There are many reasons why adults might want to try dancing. Here are our Top 3!
Mental Health
Dancing can improve your mood, help you relax, reduce stress, and induce mindfulness. The combination of music, movement, and rhythmic patterns can help you escape from daily concerns and immerse yourself in the present moment. Learning new steps can also activate your brain, and coordinated body movements can support cognitive function. Dance therapy can also be a complementary treatment for adults with depression and anxiety.
Confidence
As you learn and practice, you'll become more confident in your abilities, which can increase your self-esteem. Learning a new skill can also give you a feeling of accomplishment and pride.
Physical health
Dancing can help you develop strength, endurance, and good posture, as well as, reduce joint pain and stiffness. It can also help improve your flexibility, balance, and coordination. As a cardiovascular workout, it can reduce the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease, lung disease, and diabetes.

The World Dance Pageant provides a platform for networking within the industry and helps dancers explore the depths of their talents and passion for the arts. It is a place to nurture and grow the next generation of instructors and performing artists.
