Tango therapy


As I read this article, I thought Tango therapy is a really nice idea to stay health in some ways. First, since the tempo of tango is almost the same as walking, serotonin secretion increases when they are dancing. Serotonin is so called a happy hormone. Second, they can enjoy having contact with other people through dancing tango. Basically body contact is important for every person. However, the more people get old, the less they can have chances to be touched by others, so tango is good for such people. They are also able to have social connection while dancing in pairs. Therefore, it can be said that tango therapy is good for both physical and mental health.
