DDr help able to comprehend something fast. like 2+2=4 but something much harder.
EDIT: Basically it has helped me much better to THINK ON MY FEET and excersise both sides of my brain.

I think my eye-foot coordination has improved. E13.gif
And it's just SO MUCH FUN!!! I think doing something you like doing is a benefit.

Meeting some cool people, lots of laughs, eye-foot coordination, stamina, getting out of the house (i'm not a social person)

Forgot to add the socialness. I met some awesome friends (you know who you are) through DDR, which is never a bad thing.

Gives better balance, and it makes you more enthusiastic when you do sports or something (well, atleast for me)

It REALLY helps with percussive rhythm, which, in turn could make you a great drummer or pianio player... I think...

^ I like Sparticus' answer E4.gif

For me, other than weight loss, I really am into the cardiovascular workout involved with it and the fact that my legs from ankle to thigh are darn near solid muscle. biggrin.gif

Good thread idea.
DDR has improved my stamina for running and cycling (both of which I like to do) and leg strength.

It has helped me with rhythm and has improved my skills as a drummer, increased my stamina and endurance, and has quickened my feet for baseball.

It improves my sight-reading, which really helps me in concert band (since I hate practicing on my own, and have some really tough music this semester!). And it gives you something to do: when you're done, you walk around dancing everywhere, and makes people wonder about you (which is always a kick!)
