What are the benefits of children learning to dance?

1. Beautiful body shape: Children who are in the growth and development period can stand up straight and have a beautiful body shape through dance training (such as holding the chest up, head up, and abdomen in), and can correct body problems such as hunchback and shoulders.

2. Movement coordination: Dance requires the coordination of all parts of the body. Through the harmony of music and dance movements, movement coordination training can be achieved and children can have a better sense of rhythm.

3. Limb flexibility and agility: Due to regular practice of pressing feet, splits, bending waist, etc., children have good flexibility and agility.

4. Build perseverance: Starting from the basics can help them develop a spirit of not fearing hardship and build strong will.

5. Improve physical fitness: Dancing requires a certain amount of physical exertion. Practicing it can promote children's appetite, enhance digestive function, improve body resistance, and reduce the chance of illness.

6. Improve cooperation ability and collective sense of honor: There are solo dance, duet dance and group dance. Only with tacit cooperation can a good performance be performed. This trains the children's spirit of cooperation, cultivates the habit of consciously abiding by rules and discipline, and cultivates the concept of cooperation.

7. Cultivate aesthetic emotions: Dance expresses the inner world through music, movements, expressions, and postures, which allows children to be subtly influenced by artistic performances, love life, and appreciate and experience beauty.

8. Cultivate self-confidence: Dance performances can cultivate children's performance ability, make them less stage-frightened, more expressive, and enhance their self-confidence and better psychological quality.

9. Promote intelligence: Dance is expressed through body shape, movements and eyes. The process of dancing can stimulate children's imagination and creativity, especially self-written and self-performed works, which can promote children's intellectual development. The above are the benefits of learning dance, but some parents think that their children’s conditions are not good and they are not suitable for learning dance. In fact, everyone can learn dance as long as they are interested and have time.
