Line dancing is a good, all round healthy
activity. a).
It promotes cardiovascular health through physical workouts of varying intensity.
b). Memory work involved in learning and remembering, provides many mental
benefits. c). Aids in the prevention of osteoporosis. d). It
allows you to interact with a wide variety of people from all walks of life, serving
one's social health.
However, having said all
this, it is very important that you wear correct clothing and footwear to enjoy
the pastime fully. We do NOT recommend the wearing
of slip-ons and mules or flip flops (See recommended shoes & boots on the
right hand column) You
will get extremely warm and therefore it is a good idea to wear several layers
of clothing, so that you can remove them as you warm up and then wrap up warm
to go home, especially in winter time.
PLEASE WEAR COMFORTABLE SHOES - YOU WILL NEED A SHOE OR BOOT THAT
WILL GLIDE ON THE FLOOR AND HAS PLENTY OF SUPPORT AROUND THE HEEL. FLIP-FLOPS,
SOME TRAINERS OR OTHER RUBBER BOTTOMED SHOES ARE NOT THE BEST TYPE OF FOOTWEAR
FOR LINE DANCING AS THEY CAN CAUSE UNNECESSARY WEAR AND TEAR ON ANKLES & KNEES. |
