What are the health benefits of line dancing? The main physical health benefit of line dancing is that it provides a fun workout by improving heart and respiratory function: dancing burns as many calories as walking or cycling. Many people who find it hard to get excited about an aerobics or gymnastics class will find the rhythm and choreography of line dancing to be more tempting and spirit-friendly options. Dancing, however long you exercise, requires strength, balance and coordination, so it's a great way to improve memory, focus, balance, and stability. This is especially true as you get older, as good balance helps prevent falls. Another advantage: the movements strengthen the bones and muscles of the hips and legs.
