Welcome to dance4bones. Begin dancing today!

dance4bones classes are tailored to the specific needs of people who have osteopenia, osteoporosis, or simply want a gentle approach to dance which includes our founder, Penelope Wasserman. An avid dancer since the age of 4, dancing is her favorite weight-bearing exercise. She also needs to be careful not to break a bone. She understands the importance of movement modifications in class settings that are often overlooked or misunderstood by instructors. Many steps and stretches that are traditional parts of a dance vocabulary have to be modified or eliminated when a dancer has fragile bones. That is why she created the dance4bones program. Penelope knows that often the best movement solutions are the most fun to practice. Dancing fills our hearts with joy. When you love what you are doing it is one of the most powerful ways to create a positive impact for your physical and emotional health.

Cinderella is proof that a new pair of shoes can change your life. The benefits of dance for bone strength, balance, coordination, brain health, aerobic capacity, weight management, mental health, joyfulness, posture, flexibility, pain reduction, and sheer joy are undeniable. Don’t wait, make the decision NOW to dance your way to wellness every week with dance4bones, and THANK YOU SO MUCH for joining our dance team!
