But they are not just there for fun, but to improve their brains.
Dancing has so many beneficial effects on the brain that it is now being used to treat people with Parkinson’s disease, which affects about 1 in 500 Kiwis.
“Motion is lotion, getting people moving is really important,” dance leader and physiotherapist Rachel Horwell said.
What do you do to keep fit and stimulate your brain?

We are currently very short of stock and keen to buy any of these or similar items.
Buying now at a venue near you deal with the specialists.

Advised today after having to take the time to phone WCC that the invoices should be printed today from above reading date!
Anyone else have thoughts on: In 2021
WHY the Water Rates invoice cannot be e-mailed out?
Why it takes So long from meter being read to invoice being 'printed' never mind then having to wait the mail delivery time??
Why to get a copy of Water Rates invoice you have to wait for the printing so a scanned copy can be emailed to you - on your request.???
C'mon WCC - what SYSTEM is this in 2021?????

"Siam came in my cat door six years ago with this sponge in his mouth and dropped it at my feet as a gift for me. His owner gave him to me because he just refused to go and six years on, he still brings the same sponge to me every night. I'm pretty sure it is the equivalent of roses in his mind."
