Humans are born to dance. And in today's sedentary world, we would all benefit from doing more of it. Science shows that just ten minutes of dancing provides a thorough work out for the body and brain, raising the heartbeat to cause a release of feel-good endorphins, connecting us to our emotions and reducing our stress levels. Dancing quite simply makes us feel more alive.


In The Dance Cure, dance psychologist Dr Peter Lovatt reveals how moving to the beat can have a far reaching impact on all areas of life - it not only increases our physical agility but also improves our communication skills and relationships, helps us to think more creatively and increases our confidence.


This is a book for everyone, whether you are a seasoned disco diva or a shy soul who "can't dance". With a twist here and a shimmy there, Dr Lovatt shares his best steps and routines, as well as top dance anthems to get you up on your feet and dancing yourself happy.
