First, dancing square dance can exercise. I know an old man who used to stay indoors and always complained to his children that his legs and feet hurt. Later, my daughter took her out to dance square dance with other old people. A few days later, she felt that her legs and feet were all right, and she stopped crying all day. Square dance is also a sport For the elderly in the city, without more activities, square dance has become a good way to exercise.
Second, dancing in square dance can kill time. Old people who live in high-rise buildings in cities, unlike those in rural areas, can look around the east and west, and spend most of their time at home. I don't know how to use the extra time except cooking occasionally. Square dance solved this problem and gave the elderly more things to do.
Third, dancing in square dance can increase the socialization of the elderly. Old people who often don't go out have no social activities, and big cities are full of strangers. Square dance is to get more old people together and make more friends. Some old people who are familiar with square dance will meet to play. This kind of socialization can relieve loneliness for the elderly and reduce the burden for the young.
