What do you think about #wellbeingatwork? Whose responsibility is it to #care about how you and your colleagues are #feeling while you work? DanceBreak believes wellbeing is improved through both physical and mental activation. Our research signals that #dance movement (even more than #yoga, #pilates, #HIIT, etc.) improves health and wellbeing because of how dance specifically challenges “sensory, motor, and cognitive” skills.* and it's fun! That's why we will continue to offer #15minutesofmovement every Wednesday @ 12:00 CET (on Zoom) to boost your #mood, #energy and #motivation through guided sessions with professional dance artists. Join us and together let's #GETMOVING! Register to join at www.dancebreak.de or via link in bio 📌 *Source: "Dance and embodiment: therapeutic benefits on body-mind health."
