Kids Get Fit With Hip Hop Dancing

With childhood obesity increasing at staggering rates, parents and caregivers must play an active role in protecting children’s health. Eating healthy foods is a key factor in maintaining their overall well-being. But, this has to be balanced with regular physical activity.

Children who are physically active on a regular basis will reap enormous benefits. Studies have shown that they:

• Are less likely to become overweight
• Have a decreased risk of developing type 2 diabetes
• Have reduced blood cholesterol levels and lower blood pressure
• Have higher self-esteem and reduced incidences of depression and anxiety
• Are more likely to build strong bones and muscles
• Are more attentive in school

Dance Classes 

Focusing on youth in minority neighborhoods and communities, researchers found that kids will almost universally embrace dancing.

The donations will go towards opening a Dance Studio helping obesity in Kids.
