Health Mailbox - dopamine system |
|
Dopamine is a
chemical that is released in the brain when you dance. It
makes you feel good. It's the same chemical that makes
you crazy in love (which can be good or bad). Ever
felt like you were addicted to dancing? Here's why...
Q: A recent column on love and
the brain noted that a lover's picture triggers the dopamine
system. Is this good or bad? What is the function of the
dopamine system?
-- S.M.
Elevated concentrations of dopamine are
associated with exhilaration, increased energy,
hyperactivity, sleeplessness, loss of appetite, trembling, a
pounding heart, accelerated breathing and sometimes anxiety
and fear. And as dopamine increases in the brain, it often
drives up levels of testosterone, the hormone of sexual
desire. All of these traits are associated with romantic
love. None of this is bad for you in and of itself, but the
toll it takes on your emotional and physical health
ultimately is decided by how the relationship works out.

Not
all boys are afraid of ballet class |
I
started dancing to nurse a minor knee wrestling
injury....and to meet girls....it worked.
Surrounded by 12 girls wearing lilac leotards
and white tights, two little boys defy anyone to
call them sissies.
Bobby Rouse, Nicholas' dad, pointed out that
many athletes, including NFL Hall of Famer Lynn
Swann, have practiced ballet and credited it for
agility honing.
"I was a goalie. I wanted to be able to do
the splits ... and I had an older sister who was
a dancer," he said, observing Long's students do
stretches.
Jonah said his buddies have playfully teased
him for being a dancer.
His comeback? "'Who gets to sit in a room
with girls in tights? You or me?' " he said.

State court upholds a Prohibition-era ban on social dancing
|
NEW YORK — It's not often this urbane metropolis gets
compared to a small town with repressive mores.
"It is right out of that movie 'Footloose,' " said Paul
Chevigny, a New York University Law School professor who
represents the dance advocates. "In my view, underneath it
all is the fact that there's always been a puritanical fear
of social dance. It's a form of expression with the body,
and people are just afraid of that."
"The irony," Chevigny said, "is that strippers are protected
by the 1st Amendment and waltzers are not."
