BELLY DANCE & THE BENEFITS OF CROSS TRAINING

There are a multitude of positive benefits to belly dancing. It can correct bad posture, tone muscles, increase core strength and circulation to the pelvic area. Belly dance also offers a great form of aerobic exercise, with natural endorphins entering the body and giving us an exercise high.

However despite the physical benefits of belly dance, as with any sport or dance art if you only do belly dance it can result in an imbalance in your body. Cross training with different types of exercise both makes you a better dancer and it also helps prevent overuse injuries.
