Dance is harder on your body than you think

Dance is a very physical and active sport. Just like any other sport you have to be mentally and physically prepared for everything that is about to come.

Depending on the type of dance you are doing you could be moving fast or slow, but it all takes a lot out of you. When dancing you have to have strong legs and a good core.

As you get older, your body gets weaker there's no question about that. Dance is very hard on you joints when dong it for so long. Instead of strengthening it as it does when you are younger it starts to hurt you more and more as you get old.

Dance is a very good exercise and does great things for your body when you are young; it is god aerobics, stretches your body, give you the energy you need, and it gets you going for the day. Although these things are very good for you it only does it for so long.

Like I said before, your body gets weaker as you get older and your muscles and joints can't take as much as you used to be able to. You also can't move as fast as you used to.

So, when dancing make sure to prepare yourself as best you can. Stretch all the time!! Also, make sure to eat healthy and keep your energy up.
