    Dance is a form of expression that has mental, physical, and emotional benefits. It helps strengthen the body through coordination and balance, and can help express or process difficult emotions. Dance tells stories through movement and allows one to focus and be present in the moment. It can help heal both mental and physical problems by lessening burdens and providing freedom of self-expression. Learning to move through dance and other activities also helps build confidence, strength, and overall health by developing psychomotor skills and the ability to control one's body. It integrates cognitive development and physical aptitude.

    Dance is to live and live is to dance.

    Dancing makes our whole body system become stronger, as what everybody says, it helps us to
    balance our healthy lifestyle with coordination. In some other way, we dance to feel good, to feel better, to
    mend the sad emotions that we feel. It somehow expresses the feelings we want for others to know. It's the
    other way to voice out what we wanted to tell. It is a conversation between our body and soul, through the
    rhythm of the music. Every movement of our body, every routine that we do, it tells a thousand stories. When
    we dance, we have to be in a moment. Where we focus in one aspect to another, and make the most of it as
    the best. I believe that dancing has the power to heal our problems mentally and physically. It is our
    meditation; it lessens the heaviness we carry and soothes the burdens we contain. It gives us the greatest
    freedom of all, for being in our own self without depending to others. According to Martha Graham when we
    dance, “There is vitality, a life force, energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action; and
    because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. If you block it, it will never exist through
    any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it. You must keep that channel open. It is not for
    you to determine how good it is, nor how valuable, nor how it compares with other expressions. If is for you to
    keep it ours, clearly and directly.”

    Learn to move and move to learn.

    We all need to learn psychomotor skills to promote health. It helps us to build strength, become strong,
    and also to build confidence. Learning to move involves developing the knowledge, and understanding. This is
    a process of learning movement solutions in a various challenges of our life. In promoting health, we only not
    focus on the physical aspect of our body but we should also consider the totality of our individuality that
    includes the emotional, spiritual, mental, and physical aspects. Psychomotor activities are vital in our day to
    day living, aside from it helps us to be strong, the most important role it plays is that it helps develop an
    individual’s behaviour. It also hones the cognitive ability, integrates maturity and control of the own body,
    coordinates and regulates movement, and it stimulates reflexes, perceptual skills and most especially physical
    aptitude. As for me, practically, learning how to move and moving to learn give a two way route. First is, you
    learn the steps on how to move, thus you will acquire certain knowledge upon doing that move. On the same
    hand, as you learn how to move, along its process you’ve got a chance to learn various things and vice versa.
    “Early physical activity, skills development + socialization + enjoyment = sustainable fitness for life”
