Can dance help you lose weight?

If you’re considering dancing to burn calories like Tiger Shroff, there’s scientific evidence to back it up. A study published in the journal PLOS ONE on January 17, 2024, explored whether dance is an effective intervention for fat loss and the results are promising. The researchers concluded: “Dance is effective on fat loss in people with overweight and obesity, and has a significant improvement on body composition and morphology. For its high efficiency and greater sense of enjoyment, dance can be a beneficial exercise intervention for fat loss.”

In a previous interview with HT Lifestyle, Aarti Pandey, co-founder of Folk Fitness, discussed how integrating traditional Indian folk dances into fitness routines can effectively aid in weight loss. Pandey emphasised that these dance forms, such as Garba, Bhangra, and Tippani, are not only culturally enriching but also serve as high-intensity cardio workouts that help burn calories and improve overall fitness. She highlighted that the rhythmic movements and engaging choreography of these dances provide a full-body workout, enhancing cardiovascular health and promoting fat loss. Click here to read more.
