Dancing is a great way to build lean muscle mass, which helps boost your metabolism (your body's way of turning nutrients into energy). When your muscles are active and your metabolism is higher, you're better able to avoid issues like heart disease, high blood pressure, and joint pain, explains Dr. Rekha Kumar, an endocrinologist with NewYork-Presbyterian and Weill Cornell Medicine. So come get your muscles moving at our samba session!
My name is Alexander Hamilt–wait, different musical.
