The value of the arts as part of a comprehensive general education cannot be underestimated... In a nutshell, you can encapsulate some of these benefits into the following categories:
1- Motor skills / Coordination: Learning dance can help with everyday movements that require balance and coordination, and dance is a useful cross-training tool for sports and athletics
2- General fitness: It's now well known that the US has an obesity problem. Dance is an enjoyable activity that breaks up the school day and gives children and young adults a chance to become more active.
3- Kinesthetic learning: In most schools, teachers often rely solely on visual and auditory cues to facilitate learning. Many students learn best through practice and kinesthetic cues, and these students can fall behind because the environment is not conducive to this learning style. Creative movement activities that recreate the electrons of an atom, the geometry of a parallelogram, or the blood flow through the heart can be useful for students of all learning styles to visualize difficult concepts.
4- Alternative career options: Exposure to the arts can open up interests that can be expensive to pursue outside of school.
