Goal: identify differences in the quality of life, life satisfaction and self-esteem between women who taking and not taking regular physical activity. Method and research group: The study included adult women who attended dance classes (research group N = 36) and women who did not dance and did not participate in any regular sports activities (N = 38). The average age of women was 52 years. Data were collected using the Quality of Life Questionnaire by M. Stras-Romanowska, A. Oleszkiewicz & T. Frackowiak, Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) by E. Diener, R.A. Emmons, R.J. Larson & S. Griffins and Self Esteem Scale (SES) by M. Rosenberg. Results: Statistical analyzes showed that women attending dance classes had significantly higher levels of self-esteem, satisfaction with life and quality of life than inactive dancers. The lack of diversity has only emerged in the metaphysical component of quality of life (U Mann-Whitney’s statistics did not turn out to be significant). Conclusions: Dance activity is associated with a higher level of quality of life of the examined women
