Wonderful 😍 Love this 😀 💃🕺
Indeed, "the question is more Why must we dance? than Why do we dance?"

What can out long love affair with dance teach us about ourselves?

Today is World Mental Health Day! Taking time for yourself is just as important as hitting those eight counts in class. Whether you're a regular dance fitness fanatic or just moving your body in any way, remember that your mental well-being deserves attention and care. Let's all prioritise self-care today—and every day—because a healthy mind is the best foundation for a happy healthy life!

As you may know, October 10th is World Mental Health Day. The focus this year is on coping with the impact of repeated exposure to news coverage of difficult topics such as crises and conflicts.

FitSteps is a fantastic way to shut the world out and escape for a while but we want to remind you that feelings of overwhelm are always valid. We also want to remind you that we are real people here behind the screen and we are always here for you. If you need to talk our inbox is always open. At FitSteps we are a family and if we can help, even if it's just by listening - we will.

WMHD have produced a handy guide to managing overwhelm, which you can find by clicking the link below.

💃🕺 Dancing is pure JOY indeed! I see how many smiles and laughter it brings to my parricipants in every class 😃 You don’t stop dancing because you grow old. You grow old because you stop dancing 🥰
✨ ️It is a very powerful tool for both physical and mental stimulation and health. ✨️

A new analysis shows that moving to music with others can be a powerful way to ease symptoms of depression. Unlike walking or yoga, dance engages the brain in a unique “neurochemical symphony,” blending physical activity with joy, connection, and self-expression. Here's why it helps and how to harness it, according to experts: https://on.natgeo.com/47WKONQ
