Oldies, you may want to put on your dancing shoes and crank up that tango music as according to a recent study, doing so helps in better ageing. Queensland Ballet and QUT released the results of a joint project examining the health and wellbeing benefits of ballet for older Australians. The three-month project, incorporating 10 Ballet for seniors classes, found participants experienced higher energy levels, greater flexibility, improved posture, and an enhanced sense of achievement. They also felt happier and enjoyed a sense of community and friendship.
