Learn to dance mesa azThe club scene can be quite fun and exhilarating, especially if you are now legal to get in. Have you wanted to out to the clubs or dance halls but come up with some excuse every time someone asks you to? Don’t say no just because you can’t dance! Taking private or group dance classes can help you learn some moves to use on the dance floor and you will feel more confident about your dancing. If you are uncoordinated and have two left feet, dance classes can also help you find your rhythm and get you to move more comfortably in your own body.

Depending on the type of club you want to go to and the style of dancing at the club should help you decide which dance class to take. If you like Country Western bars, or clubs, then you should probably take classes that teach Country Two-Step, Country Swing, Country Waltz, and other popular Country Western dances.

If you would rather go to a nightclub where they play Hip Hop and other popular music from today, then you can pull inspiration from a couple of different dance styles. You can learn moves from Hip Hop dancing and even Latin dances, such as Salsa, Cha Cha, and Merengue. Becoming confident in your own abilities is the first step to getting you into that club with your friends. Gain some confidence now with beginning dance private and group lessons.

Dance FX Studios in Mesa, AZ, is just the place to learn how to dance with Private Dance Lessons and Group Dance Lessons. Private dance lessons allow you to work on specific moves that are difficult for you. They also give you all the attention that you may need with the instructor. More information about Private Dance Lessons can be found at https://dancefxstudios.com/dance-lessons-mesa-arizona/ .

If you prefer a group setting, our Group Dance Lessons are held for 4 consecutive weeks and build upon the previous class. Group Classes start up again during the 1st week of April. Additional information on Group Dance Lessons can be seen at https://dancefxstudios.com/dance-classes-mesa-arizona/

Zumba classes on Wednesdays Mesa azLooking for a great workout that will give you the most bang for your buck? If you haven’t tried Zumba® Fitness yet you are in for a real treat. Zumba classes are approximately an hour long and incorporate dance moves from Latin, Hip-Hop, Belly Dancing, and other dance styles. It is a fun and great workout for any experience level.

Depending on a variety of factors, you can burn anywhere from 400-1100 calories during each Zumba® class. Some factors that will alter the amount of calories you burn include your body weight, sex, fitness level, and the intensity of the class among others. The reason for burning so many calories during each session is the total body workout that you receive during each class.

Classes are designed by certified instructors to provide you with a strong cardio and muscular workout that will help you burn fat and build lean muscles. However, what you get out of the Zumba® class is up to you. If you put “your all” into the class then you are most likely going to experience some great rewards. Just know that you will get out of the class what you put into it.

If you are interested in burning 400-1100 calories in about an hour of exercising, if you can even call it that, you should start going to a Zumba® Fitness Class. It is a fun and lively way to get into shape and you will want to come back for more!

Get Inspired by Wheelchair Dancers

/in /by

dancing lessons mesa azYou will find that when you ask people what do they like so much about Ballroom dancing, they will reply that it lifts their spirits. In one particular case in San Diego with student Beverly Weurding, she stated that dancing had renewed her spirit. However, this was not your ordinary situation. Beverly was previously diagnosed with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) and was told that she would not be able to walk, climb, dance, or play sports. She would experience extreme muscle wasting and pain, which would lead to the use of a wheelchair.

After years of being unhappy, Beverly thought she might be able to “experience the joy of dancing while in a wheelchair.” After a lot of searching on her part to find a dance instructor who was willing to work with her, she learned some of the amazing health benefits that came with Ballroom dancing. Even for her, she experienced what many of you can, this includes better balance, muscle strength, flexibility, range of motion, increased coordination, and positive emotional and psychological effects.

Beverly is an inspiration to many people and has helped other challenged people see how wheelchair dancing can benefit them. So why don’t you let Ballroom dancing help rejuvenate your spirit too with reduced stress, increased energy, better muscle tone, improved coordination, and more flexibility. There are so many wonderful and positive benefits to Ballroom dancing. Feel free to go and take a couple classes to see for yourself.

If not, this group was named “Hip Hop Grannies” and a 70 year-old Chinese woman started it. Other women in this group claim they receive a lot of energy when dancing the Hip Hop style, even at their age. The Hip Hop Grannies group is truly an inspiration to everyone and hopefully gives you the motivation to start dancing today.

This makes it a great alternative to running, climbing stairs, or using an elliptical.

Despite the great health benefits, Hip Hop dancing can also help you with your confidence. Improvements in your balance, coordination, and movements that come from Hip Hop dancing can leave you feeling better about yourself and your abilities, thus boosting your confidence.

Expand Your Latin Dancing with the Bachata

/in /by

latin dancing phoenixHave you recently taken a Salsa dancing class and want to learn more Latin dances? How about trying your hand with the fun and alluring Bachata. It is a basic 3 step dance with some Cuban hip motion. The hip motion is the key movement in the dance because it is part of the soul of the dance. The basic side-to-side movements include 3 steps to either side and then a tap step with hip movement.

Originally, the Bachata was danced to express the feelings that someone has for another person. Supposedly, the more smoothly and frequency in hip movement related the amount of feelings someone had. Speaking of feelings, learning this, or any Latin dance, can be quite a romantic evening for a couple. You may be able to strengthen the bond that you have with your partner, spend more time with one another, improve your communication skills with each other (non-verbal as well), and increase the romance in your relationship.

If you want to dance for pure health benefits, well how about these great reasons: building endurance and stamina, helping with weight loss, relieving stress, releasing toxins via sweating, may help in lowering blood pressure and improving cholesterol levels, reduced heart rate over time, and strengthening bones.

There are also other benefits to dancing besides the purely physical ones as well. You may experience psychological and spiritual as well. There is a unique stimulation of the mind that comes from performing an aerobic exercise while engaging in social activity that has great benefits against Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia in the elderly. Another thing you might experience are other mental benefits such as decreased stress, less depression, and reduced loneliness.

If you are interested in learning the Bachata and many other Latin styles of dances, join us at Dance FX Studios, located in Mesa, Arizona, for private Latin dance lessons.

The Tango Heats up the Big Screen

/in /by

argentine tango dancing mesa azToday, there are many movies that feature dancing in them. The movie, The Wedding Planner, featured a Tango between Mary Fiore (Jennifer Lopez) and Steve Edison (Matthew McConaughey) as one of the more intimate scenes in the movie. Which is exactly what the Tango is, a passionate dance relating the fire between two people. Another dance film that features the Tango is Take the Lead. You can clearly see the sensuality and sex appeal of this dance during the demonstration that Mr. Dulaine (Antonio Banderas) shows his new students. The lust, romance, and flirtatious dance quickly grabs the students’ attention and they now want to learn how to dance.

When you take Tango dance lessons, you can achieve the same sensuality and sexuality that is portrayed in the movies. Getting confident in your own skin and being able to move your body with ease and fluidity can be just a couple of things that you can learn about yourself during dance classes. Not only feeling confident about moving your body, but becoming more confident about yourself can be a huge benefit to these classes.

Who knows, this could be just the thing to ignite that passion that you once had in your relationship. If it is still there, perhaps it is muted; you may be able to set it ablaze. The passion, excitement, and intensity of the dance could be just the thing to add some romance in your life.

So you are interested in taking some Tango dance lessons but do not know where to start? Come down to Dance FX Studios in Mesa, Arizona, for private or group Argentine Tango lessons. Group sessions are 4 weeks long and start up again on April 4th. They will be every Wednesday at 8 pm.
