After every session I feel so wonderful and full of energy!
Regular dancing is great for keeping active, maintaining strong bones, improving posture and muscle strength, increasing balance and co-ordination, and beating stress.
Dance On Doncaster
Get Doncaster Moving fund a programme called 'Dance On Doncaster' to encourage people aged over 55 years old to get active and have fun through local dance classes.
Dance classes take place weekly and are suitable for any fitness level and those who are new to dancing! The sessions are run by professional dancers who are experienced in supporting older adults to exercise through dance.
Class timetable
Classes take place weekly in Armthorpe, Auckley, Bessacarr, Edlington, Stainforth, The Point (Doncaster town centre) and Thorne.
There is also a Dance On Strength & Balance class which takes place weekly at Woodfield Park Community Hall (Balby).
