In my free time i love to dance..put on any kinda music and my body will start synchronizing with it,my mind will start let going all the problems that were bothering me!! D.A.N.C.E is Dance, attitude,never give up, concentration and expression....some refer dance as a hobby, some relate it to an excellent therapy to lead a healthy life as dancing helps burning about 300-700 calories.So in my article i'll be telling you about some of various dances and their health benefits.

Dance comes in various forms and anybody means anybody can dance whether he be a 1 yr old kid or 80 yr old grandpa,from slim n trim divas to fatty matty even people with disabilities.It just takes to put your heart and soul to express your emotions via dancing.

We have various Dancing styles and to attain perfection in them we go to dancing classes, learn steps, full choreography, stunts and lifts over there!but anyone who just loves to pour out his emotions silently yet with magical power sometimes to make himself refresh, alive, stress-free whatever be the reason whereas some like to show it to the world.So this art form has really gained  momentum.Parents are encouraging their tots to learn dancing..yea it is somewhat good to learn various styles of dance but it is already in there in everyone of us :) let's look for some super dancing forms,may be some of you might find his or her forte in dancing.

1.Hip Hop:
 My favorite dance type! Hip hop involves large movements of the entire body, which places it high on the expenditure scale. It also often involves free styling, meaning that muscle groups are kept guessing and are less likely to stop responding to the exercise or hit a plateau. In 60 minutes, hip hop will use between 370 (for people with lighter body weights) to 610 (for those weighing 180 and up) . Open your laptop,take lessons from youtube(best teacher) for a beginner.

2.Salsa:

Again at the top of my charts. This ravishingly dazzlingly sensuous dance arouses sexy dancer in you by just a look of it. You need to build up connection with your partner and understanding of every beat.It is also been said that it boosts your mental strength. Roughly 405 per 60 minutes for someone weighing 140, or around 480 for a 180 lb person.Be confident..go salsa in 2014!

3.Ballet:
This form of dance tends to be associated with great posture, a strong core, increased flexibility and very strong legs. It is known for building that long and lean look that women so often strive for, but make no mistake; ballet requires a great deal of strength. We estimate that there are 380 to 450 ballet calories burnt per hour. Next time if you want to learn ballet doesn't matter you are a boy or a girl,Point your toes babe :P
4. Ballroom dance:
Very very classy dance..gives you no less than some royal feeling!This dance is a symbolic how much you love your partner,no doubt every couple dance requires sync with your partner but how many calories does ballroom dancing burn? – Slower paced styles will expend between 150 and 220, while quicker types will range between 250 and 320 per hour.
 The Cha Cha is a lively, flirtatious ballroom dance full of passion and energy.

 The Foxtrot is a ballroom dance that is lots of fun and simple to learn...an excellent dance for beginners.

 Jive is a ballroom dance style that originated in the United States from African-Americans. It is a lively form of Swing dance.

The Mambo is one of the most sensual and emotional Latin American ballroom dances. Swaying hip movements, facial expressions, arm movements and holds all add to the sensuality of the dance.

The Paso Doble is one of the liveliest ballroom dances, originating in southern France. It is modeled after the sound, drama, and movement of the Spanish bullfight.

The Rumba is considered by many to be the most romantic and sensual of all Latin ballroom dances. It is often referred to as the "Grandfather of the Latin dances".

5.Belly dance: 

Shake..shake that belly gurl! sexy way loosing your belly fat..works on me.Once you got the basic step of grooving your belly to beats there will be no problem after that.I think it's not that difficult,full bellilitious yummy tummy shaker dance. It also involves movement of hips,hands,shoulders and back. Hence a complete package of staying fit.I have read few articles saying belly dancing aids digestion,clears skin complexion i don't know how this works but yeah other benefits include improving sleep,improving memory and decreasing back-pain. Not only it calories burned – Roughly 270-320 for less intense versions, and between 290 and 360 for faster & higher intensity styles.

6.Tap:
Tap dance is all about how you move your lower body-legs and feet! This ends up being a full body cardio workout but the legs do the bulk of the work. This one has a high amount of variance in expenditure estimations; between 200 and 700 depending on pace, steps per hour, and the amount of effort required for the moves.

7. Zumba:

8. Pole dancing:
Pole dance i believe is the sexiest dance form which builds up your fitness. Strength is needed not just in the upper body but also in the limbs, you have to support your whole body not your legs but on one single.Pole dance is sexy version of Indian form of martial art called 'mallakhamb'. Calories burned – Along with building strength, you can burn between 250 and 350 while partaking in this popular workout trend.
