Dance is one of the most effective and fun ways to get fit.  Bollywood dancing can be adapted easily to allow seniors to join in – just choose the lower impact exercises to burn your calories. Stress is also a leading cause of high blood pressure but dancing is a great way to unwind. Why do many seniors suffer from high blood pressure? It is often due to:

  • Obesity
  • Diabetes
  • Kidney Disease
  • High Cholesterol

Often seniors are not aware of high blood pressure as there are little to no symptoms  so ensure you get a regular health check up. Dance cardio classes can be tailored to suit your needs so ensure you tell the instructor of any blood pressure issues before you begin. Why not take a look at some of the ways high blood pressure in seniors can be prevented?
