Why does music make me move?

We tap our toes. We sway in our seats. We shimmy across the dance floor. Grooving to the beat engages the parts of our brains that process speech and movement, which leads some scientists to believe our sense of rhythm is simply a fringe benefit of having communication skills. Other researchers believe humans developed the ability to boogie to strengthen our social bonds, which helped us work together and flourish as a species. After all, every culture in history has developed some sort of music. But whether you think you can dance or not, we all have rhythm. One study suggests we’re born with it.
