Dancing is not only fun to do, but it also is a great workout and it releases endorphins which get you high~! Dance As Therapy Prolonged, continuous exercise increases production and release of endorphins. Endorphins are neurotransmitters found in the brain that have pain-relieving properties similar to morphine. Pour enough endorphins into your bloodstream and you get something that has been popularly labeled "runner's high." In simple terms, endorphins make us feel good. Dance is therapy because it enhances our feeling of well-being.
