How Ballroom Dancing Benefits Your Relationship

How can some couples maintain happy marriages for 20, 30, 40 years, or longer, but others fail before the honeymoon ends? First, some people are in love with the idea of being in love and may marry just to say they are married. So often, couples who dislike each other, who haven't the faintest idea of what love means, marry. These relationships are doomed from the start. If you want a long-lasting relationship, start by marrying someone you are compatible with, who makes your heart skip a few beats, and who you like to be around. When you like the person you marry, spending your life with them becomes a pleasure rather than a burden. After you marry someone you like, the rest is easy. If you keep your partner happy, a great marriage comes naturally. 

A few ways to ensure your relationship is exciting and healthy well into the future: 

• Embracing the small moments as much as the big ones

• Prioritizing communication

• Respecting their wishes

• Patience and understanding

• Catering to each other’s sexual desires and intimacy needs

• A whole lot of fun

Couples who share experiences experience all the fun and excitement life offers while growing in their relationship as husband and wife. Ballroom dancing is one of the shared experiences designed to bring couples closer together.

Partners mesh well together on the dance floor, creating more intimate moments in front of the crowds and when they are home alone.

How Ballroom Dancing Can Improve Your Marriage

Sure, ballroom dancing is all about fancy footwork, glamorous costumes, and sparkling shoes, but it can also be a key ingredient to improving your marriage. Couples who learn choreography together create a deep connection and build trust for one another that leads to sensual, spicy moves on the dance floor.

How can ballroom dancing improve your marriage, one step and spin at a time? Let’s look at the ways.

Boost Sex Appeal

Ballroom dancing creates heated chemistry between partners as they remain physically close and touch one another in all the right spots as they move across the dance floor.  

The sensual nature of ballroom dances like the rumba and tango encourage partners to communicate through touch. The feeling of romance and sexuality burst through the seams.

Dancing improves flexibility, allowing more freedom during sessions. And what about high heels? Numerous studies have shown that high heels profoundly affect a man’s behavior. If you want him to melt like butter in your hands, slip on your favorite dance shoes in the bedroom and watch his nature rise with excitement.

Strengthen Communication

Communication is key to a healthy relationship. Ballroom dance can rescue relationships where a lack of communication impacts a couple's lives. Dancing and performing together requires nonverbal communication. As you nonverbally communicate, you can learn better ways to talk to each other and elevate your relationship.  

You’ll pick up on nonverbal cues and signs from your partner as you dance together. These signs and cues help create more understanding and empathy with your partner.

Dancing helps couples learn to trust one another and develop better communication skills.

Build Trust

Trust is the foundation of a good relationship, but serves as a hardship for many couples. Ballroom dance can serve as a trust-building activity. Trust is essential for couples in ballroom dancing. The lead must trust his partner to follow and execute dance steps safely and with style and grace. The follower, usually the woman, requires vulnerability and trust in their partner.

As couples learn to trust their partner in dance moves, it leads to more trust outside the dance floor.  A shared experience where both partners equally implore trust in their partner can foster an emotional connection and bond that enhances any marriage.

Spend Quality Time Together

Work, kids, meetings, cooking dinner, and other adult responsibilities can leave us with little time to stop and think much less spend quality time with our partners. Together time is essential for any happy marriage. No matter how busy you are, practicing and participating in ballroom dancing is an activity you can enjoy together. Practice at home or sign up for weekly classes. It is easy to enjoy the connection built through ballroom dancing as you enjoy yourselves to the fullest.

Patience is a (Learned Virtue)

To the surprise of many, ballroom dancing can help couples learn to be more patient with each other. Oftentimes, couples find themselves snapping at their partners, impatient over the simplest of things. Ballroom dancing is an excellent way to boost patience and ease tension between partners. It is okay to misstep and to laugh at yourself. It's okay to be yourself, make mistakes, and accept them as an expected part of life versus a major catastrophe.

Health Benefits 

Exercising every single day can feel like a huge chore, but dancing is exciting and fun -and just as beneficial as exercise to your physical health. Your heart rate increases, it gets your blood pumping, and releases endorphins -feel-good chemicals- to boost your mood and reduce stress, helping you love your partner with more compassion and zest. Achieving good health together feels even better than doing it alone.

Ballroom dancing is exciting and a terrific way to improve your marriage. The benefits listed here describe the many perks awaiting you and your partner when you step onto the dance floor.
