DANCE IS GOOD FOR BODY AND MIND - and dance is for everyone, regardless of age, experience and physique.

At Neat Feet we've always known that you can dance yourself happier and now science has proved it. Below is an excerpt from an article in The Independent.

'The exercises experts are urging doctors to prescribe for depression

'The most effective exercises for tackling symptoms of depression and anxiety include running, swimming and dancing, a new study suggests.

'Group workouts may offer even greater benefits for those with depression, especially young adults and new mothers.

Researchers, whose findings were published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, are urging mental health professionals to "prescribe exercise with the same confidence as traditional treatments".'
