Dance has increased in popularity as a leisure activity during the past decade. It has now moved beyond the preserve of the young and fit and is gaining recognition as a way for everyone to gain and maintain physical health including losing weight, maintaining strong bones and improving posture and balance. In addition there is growing agreement that it offers a sense of wellbeing, through endorphin release, increased confidence and socialisation. According to the n's website more than 4.8 million people regularly attend community dance groups each year in England.
