You are right! I used to dance flamenco but my knees got to the point where they couldn't take the battering any more. I feared my dancing days might be over until I tried belly dancing - and I found that not only could my knees handle it, but my back, neck and shoulders felt much better for it!
I'm in my mid-fifties by the way.
