Three Benefits of Taking Swing Dance Lessons

rsz_1rsz_dsc05462There are many benefits to taking Private Swing Dance Lessons here at Dance FX Studios in Mesa, Arizona. Other than the obvious benefit of having a ton of fun, we thought we would tell you about a few more. If you want to stay young and healthy, relieve stress, or grow in your relationship with your partner, then Swing Dance Lessons are for you! So why “private” Swing Dance Lessons? Well, when we get to know you, your style of learning, and your goals, you are sure to reach them much faster with one-on-one instruction, rather than in a group setting.

The physical benefits of Swing Dance Lessons are so great. When you do any kind of exercise that has you constantly moving, especially using muscles that you rarely get to work on, you are bound to get fit! Did you know that Swing Dance Lessons can help prevent osteoporosis in men and women because it keeps your bones strong and your joints lubricated? How great is that?! If you’re looking for a fun way to lose weight, skip then gym and dance instead. You will be able to shed the amount of weight you want off in no time, especially if you also attend our monthly dance parties and nights out!

When you come and take private dance lessons with us, you will also be releasing your daily stress. You get to step onto that dance floor and just have fun for the entire hour. Instead of thinking about work or other troubles in your life, you can focus on having a great time with your spouse, or your dance partner. You can even make it a date night if you go out to eat before or after, just make sure to leave those kiddos at home.

If you’re constantly forgetting things, like where you put your keys, Swing Dance Lessons can really help you out. How? Well ballroom dancing forces you to recall certain steps and moves which creates an incredible mental exercise that helps keep your brain young and fresh. That way you will always remember where those keys are. 😉

Learning anything new together can really spice up things in your relationship. What’s more romantic than a date night that ends with the two of you in each other’s arms enjoying your Swing Dance Lessons? You get to spend quality time with your loved one in your Private Dance Lessons without having to yell at the kids or hear the phone ring. Forget about cleaning the house and make time together with someone special.

Dancing is a language that requires no speaking. When you learn how to communicate through dancing with your spouse, it can open up other means of communication that maybe the two of you forgot about. This may take you back to the beginning stages of your relationship and mend whatever may be broken between the two of you. It has been shown that couples who dance stay together because you get to develop a deeper connection together and learn how to bond with each other in a way that other couples, who don’t take dance lessons, never get to experience.

Don’t stick with your boring routine. Come and see us and we will get you out of that rut with our Introductory Offer for Private Swing Dance Lessons. You will be able to relieve stress, lose weight, and enjoy your loved one.

Get Carefree with Swing Dancing!

Country Swing dancing Scottsdale azOne simple and very fun style of dancing is Swing dancing. The lively music and playful attitude of Swing dancing gives people a fun and carefree feeling. With the quick and exciting movements, you are bound to have a ball when you dance any type of Swing dancing.

There are over 20 versions of Swing dancing, but one of the most common from the late 1950’s is the Jitterbug. The Jitterbug was one of the most popular fast moving dances from American Bandstand, a popular music-performance show from that era. Usually danced to Big Band music, a characteristic of the Jitterbug Swing dance is that it has a little more bounce to it than say a Country Swing dance would. Country Swing dancing differs as it has more dips, lifts, and spins to it. Another difference is the kind of music that is played with Country Swing dancing. As you may have guessed, Country Swing dancing is done to country music.

The Jitterbug and Country Swing both offer slight variations that can leave you feeling youthful and give you an overall sense of happiness. It may even transport you from the stress of the daily grind to a simpler time. Whether you want to dance to learn something new, become more confident, or build relationships, Swing dancing is fun and exciting way to do so.

Dance FX Studios, located in Mesa, Arizona, offers both types of Swing dancing mentioned above. Group Swing dancing classes (Jitterbug Swing dancing classes and Country Swing dancing classes) are 4-weeks long. The classes provide an hour-long class each week that builds upon the previous class’ dance moves.
