Dance Your Heart Out maintains a healthy beat

More than 350 people attended Christiana Care’s 2nd annual Dance Your Heart Out event at Wilmington’s Chase Center on the Waterfront on March 8.

Dance Your Heart Out provided participants with opportunities to do just that – with Wii Dance, Zumba® fitness, belly and line dancing. The evening’s theme, “Health is Motion” highlighted the important role physical activity plays in total health.

New offerings this year included demonstrations for yoga, meditation and stress-reduction, along with a performance by Tapestry Tribal, a local belly-dancing troupe. The event offered health screenings for blood pressure, bone density and body-fat analysis.

Christiana Care Health Coach Team members were on-hand to assist individuals in finding a doctor. Additionally, participants were able to visit information tables on stroke prevention, heart health, arthritis, joint replacement, nutrition and exercise.
