Sequence Dance History

Make time for dancing

Why dancing?

The essence of intelligence is making decisions. And the concluding advice, when it comes to improving your mental acuity, is to involve yourself in activities which require split-second rapid-fire decision making, as opposed to rote memory ( retracing the same well-worn paths )
or just working on your physical style.
 

One way to do that is to learn something new. Not just dancing, but anything new. Don't worry about the probability that you'll never use it in the future. Take a class to challenge your mind. It will stimulate the connectivity of your brain by generating the need for new pathways.
Difficult and even frustrating classes are better for you, as they will create a greater need for new neural pathways.

Then take a dance class, which can be even better. Dancing integrates several brain functions at once, increasing connectivity.
Dancing simultaneously involves kinaesthetic, rational, musical and emotional processes.

What kind of dancing... Take the kinds of dance classes where you must make as many split-second decisions as possible.
That's key to maintaining true intelligence. The more decision making we bring into our dancing the better..  

Dance often... Dance as much as you can... More is better...

And do it now !... Try any type of dancing !...don’t wait until you get old... the sooner the better.
It's essential to start building your cognitive reserve now... Some day you'll need it !
