10 Tips For Getting Started With Dance Cardio & Dancer Sculpt Workouts (5 of 6)

Elongate Your Body

Many styles of workout are beneficial to the body, but may not push you to lengthen your muscles. One of the specific benefits of dance is that it encourages your muscles to elongate instead of shorten. While you are performing different dance positions, take time to focus on stretching and lengthening your muscles. 

Turn Up the Tunes

As mentioned, dance is good for the body, but also good for mood and stress relief. This is partly due to its incorporation of music, which is one of the best mood lifters you can enjoy. Using music that really speaks to you and makes you happy can help you let go of control and really enjoy the dance workout.
