Project NFT Neolonga

We are on a roll. We had another fantastic night last time, with an almost even gender balance. At the beginning of the night it was exact even numbers. Everyone was able to dance as much as they wanted 🙂. Recently on TV there have been quite a few programs on living longer and aging better. A couple of them have pointed to studies showing how beneficial dancing is for mental and physical aging, as well as socialisation. Comparisons were made between exercise and dancing, and dancing trumped exercise, particularly when it came to dementia due to it's cognitive activity. Our brains are very active when dancing - apart from just the basic act of just having to move the body, we are thinking of how to execute steps, join them together, trying to recall new moves, leading, following, interpreting the music, scanning the floor to avoid collisions. Our brains are multitasking. This article goes into more details about how tango is beneficial for our memory and aging https://www.ultimatetango.com/blog/tango-and-memory Our DJ this Sunday is DJ Campbell.
