Waltzing Through The Winter of Life

 There is a common adage, "Dance like nobody is watching you."

This saying comes from the thought that most people think they can't dance and become selfconscious when dancing, but Marita Nazareth, a corporate trainer, is altering people's view with her "Line Dancing for Seniors" programme. We have a large senior population that is expanding year after year. Even though they are no longer leading busy lifestyles, they still have the capacity to give and want to interact with others and be heard. Hence, Marita had the brilliant idea of channelling this energy. "Too little is being done to access the abilities of elders," she says. "They should be energised, not tranquillised!"
