“There are short-cuts to happiness, and dancing is one of them.” Vicki Baum

I am not sure that I have ever come across a truer statement.  If you are in a mood that just seems to get you down, then dancing is easily your fix.  When you dance, you do not have to feel like you are good at it, because everyone in their own way is a dancer.  If you are moving, then you are dancing.  For ten years I have worked with children who suffer from depression, and my fix to lift spirits has always been dancing.  If it can work with children who have been through situations that have changed their emotional outlook on life, then it can surely work for you.
