First of all, necessary physical exercise is the need of the elderly.
As long as a person is over 50, his physical condition will go downhill. The functions of various systems in the body decline and problems occur frequently. Even eating is not as fragrant as before. The reason is the decline of systemic basal metabolic function. The corresponding activities will naturally be reduced, and the impact of the reduction will be further reduced. In this case, strengthening some physical activities is conducive to delaying the aging of physical function. For example, muscular atrophy, scapulohumeral periarthritis, unobstructed excretory system and enhanced cardiopulmonary function. But exercise can solve all the above problems well. Due to the special situation of the elderly, strenuous physical activity is not suitable for the elderly, but dance is very suitable for the elderly in terms of form, objective conditions and especially the amount of activity. I think this is one of the reasons why my aunt and grandpa especially like square dance.
Secondly, choosing square dance is the life demand of the elderly.
All sports activities will bring a slight euphoria. If you do some intense activities in the morning, you will feel relaxed and happy. I will be energetic all day and have a good sleep at night. This is because exercise can make the brain produce a dopamine. Old people usually feel lonely after retirement or when their families no longer bear the main burden of life. However, square dance provides a new social circle and scope of activities, and its simplicity and easy learning can ensure that the elderly can quickly integrate into this scope. It can not only exercise, but also bring happiness in mood, expand interpersonal communication and kill free time. Therefore, it is also the need of life for aunts and grandfathers to like square dance so much.
Third, the prevalence of square dance is a reflection of social life.
If time can go back, you will see that square dance is a unique phenomenon of this era. At any time, any dynasty, even the so-called peaceful and prosperous times, there is no such grand occasion that ordinary people are carefree and singing and dancing. On the one hand, it may be a habit problem, but more people are forced by their livelihood and tired of life. There is neither such mentality nor such ability. You have to admit, grandparents who like to dance square dance have no worries about food and clothing, some have retirement wages, and some have no retirement wages. The economic situation at home can be said to be the past. In short, food and clothing are safe. Otherwise, aunts and grandmothers will definitely use their dancing time to pick up plastic bottles and ask for money to subsidize their families.
Every aspect of social life is a reflection of economic or political reality. So is the square dance, and so is the attitude of uncles and aunts, so I like it. It shows that social life is thriving and full of sunshine.
