I know for sure because my niece is a psychiatrist and has plenty of patients who when take up a hobby and get involved in it do better socially and mentally. I am not saying they do not benefit from medical help but ballroom sure sends you in another direction, a happy direction.That is my layman opinion.<br /><br /><br />Kaleisha Moore Towdsende CaliforniaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36256866.post-87352888282681272942009-06-06T21:47:10.034-05:002009-06-06T21:47:10.034-05:00I was thumbing through dance sites and found these...I was thumbing through dance sites and found these dear articles on ballroom dance and life.'<br /><br />Excellent<br /><br /><br />Donna Lange Ruvino<br />New York CityAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36256866.post-16312087452970621432009-06-04T15:28:36.566-05:002009-06-04T15:28:36.566-05:00You Elita have changed my perspective on life-not ...You Elita have changed my perspective on life-not to be afraid of being bold and trying new things from here on. thanks to you my dear new friend. I know there are lots of people out there who are now inspired to do even the smallest gesture of kindness to others-more so to themselves, by going out of their shells and really enjoying life just like you do. a million thanks for being so generous with your talents (you have plenty of them, my friend.)
