Arizona Country dance lessonsNow that we’ve rung in the new year, there’s no reason that the sparks shouldn’t keep flying! Couples, you know how easy it is to get comfortable in your relationship. Make 2015 a year that will help you to develop a deeper connection with each other. “What’s the secret?”, you may be wondering. From 20 years of teaching the everyday couple to social ballroom dance, we can say with absolute confidence that learning to partner dance is THE way to come together on a more intimate level.
Social dancing is that fun stuff you see when you go out to dinner and the live band starts playing Country music. You know you want to get out there and Country Two Step or Country Swing dance with the rest of them, but you just don’t know how. Or, when you’re at your best friend’s wedding and the music quiets down, you would rather do anything other than the 7th grade prom sway for 4 minutes. What do you do? Well, social ballroom dance lessons will help you to learn some cool, dreamy steps to sweep her off of her feet!  Have you ever been to a Latin club and wished that you could Salsa dance? Yes, we teach that too! If you’re ready to give your relationship a boost this year, let us share with you our top 5 reasons how you can improve your relationship through social dancing:

 1. Dancing creates true togetherness.  With the advent of the smartphone and technology flooding/distracting us with information from all angles, it becomes increasingly difficult to be in the moment or “present” with anyone these days, let alone our loved ones or our significant other for that matter. How nice would it be to hold each other tight and put those phones away for a few hours a week just to make time for the one that means the most.

2. Dancing reignites romance and fun. Remember the days of childlike fun that you had when your first fell in love? Why not bring it back on the dance floor? With passionate dances like the Argentine Tango or playful ones like Swing dancing, you will soon be able to enjoy your new skills anywhere that music is played! It’s exciting to be great social dancers for each other and also as a skill that not every twosome can say that they have.

3. Dancing gives couples a chance to get away and escape from the day to day stress of life. Instead of jumping on Facebook or the next mind-dulling TV program, why not dance? Dancing is super-healthy physically as well as mentally. Think of another hobby that you can share with your sweetie that takes your mind off of the week’s stresses and allows you to enjoy each other fully. Social dancing provides that and so much more!

4. Dancing allows couples to learn something new and grow/progress together. Couples that grow together, stay together. Challenge each other and yourself by trying something outside of your comfort zone. Dancing may not come immediately, but with time and effort, you will enjoy your accomplishments on the dance floor for years to come.

5. Dancing develops body language and communication beyond mere words. We’ve all heard that words are only 7% of what we actually communicate to the world, right? Well now you can express yourself through dancing as another release and creative outlet. Couples that understand each other beyond words usually form a deeper, longer-lasting connection.

Country, Swing and Latin dancing for couples has many benefits, as we have explored. So, what are you waiting for?! It’s time to kick off the year with your special someone on the dance floor.
