Dancing Always Has Something for Seniors

Your senior loved one must have experienced dancing in the past. Dancing is always enjoyable and health promoting. It is time to bring the pleasures of dancing back into your elderly family member’s life!

Life’s At Home Care suggests a few of the many dancing styles that your senior loved one may find fun and engaging.

• Ballroom dancing
  If your senior family member likes a dancing style that can make them feel powerful and confident, then let them enroll in a ballroom dancing class exclusive for seniors. They may find tango and waltz satisfying because the steps are easy to alter, and they do not have to strain the joints that much. However, it is essential that your loved one wear practical shoes.
• Zumba
  If your senior family member prefers a more upbeat dancing style, then Zumba is for them! Zumba usually involves high-intensity music. However, it is essential to remind your loved one to overexert the motion in the hips, especially if they have arthritis.
• Belly dancing
  If your senior family member desires a dancing style that can make them feel sexy and attractive, then get them to join a belly dancing class! The dancing style is slow with distinct, isolated movements. It is also a great way to increase the range of motion and flexibility.

When you enroll your senior loved one to any dance classes for seniors, they can get to go out and socialize with other senior citizens. Not only they can exercise, but they also can stay socially active!

If you need someone to drive your senior loved to their dance classes regularly, Life’s At Home Care, providers of top-rated Virginia Beach home care, can help with transportation. Our compassionate caregivers can also prepare healthy meals and ready the clothes for your loved one before going to their dance sessions. It is essential that they have the energy and the appropriate apparel to experience a satisfying dance class.
