Should the elderly dance the national standard dance or the square dance?

Shadow play moves back and forth, sometimes jumping in the air, sometimes swinging arms and twisting shoulders, which is an imitation of the stiff and exaggerated movements of shadow play characters. It is characterized by large-scale flexion and extension of the neck and waist, and rhythmic coordinated movement of joints and muscles of upper and lower limbs. This kind of dance, like other dances, can not only exercise joints and muscles, but also help the elderly maintain and promote their body balance and reaction function, thus effectively preventing senile diseases such as osteoporosis, arthritis and muscular atrophy and delaying the process of physical degradation.

The biggest feature of disco dancing for the elderly is freedom. Except for some specific steps, it can improvise some actions in daily life according to the change of rhythm. The pace is flexible and free, but it is difficult and easy, and you can also improvise. Men and women can dance in pairs or in groups, which is the "darling" of old-age dance.
