Dancing invigorates physical, mental, and spiritual forces. It keeps you fit and supports healing processes. Older adults, in particular, benefit from the connection between movement and music as a pleasurable form of physical training that aligns with their abilities. Whether in senior and nursing homes, care groups, therapy centers, or sports clubs – movement, even while seated, brings joy and activates. Sandra Köhnlein has developed her introduction to dancing with older adults based on practical experience and tested it in her work with seniors. She focuses on seated dances but also provides examples of other age-appropriate movement songs and circle dances. Part 1 includes a brief introduction to the importance of movement in old age and simultaneously offers a practical guide with step-by-step instructions. It provides caregivers and group leaders with numerous suggestions.
