3 Ways Dance Can Build Healthy Self-Discipline in Children
Dance lessons provide children with physical exercise and a great release of all their built up energy, but can also be an excellent way to learn self discipline.
- Dance teaches perseverance. Over the course of a year or even just a term of participating in a dance class, children learn that by practising consistently they are able to build new skills.
- Social skills and cues. Dance classes are a highly social activity, so children learn how to have conversations with peers and make friends. They also learn to pick up on social cues from their peers.
- Stepping out of their ‘comfort zone’. Dancing in front of others, especially on stage, is confronting for many children. However, they come to learn they can trust themselves in unfamiliar situations, by getting on stage and giving it a go.
If you have been looking for an after school activity that will foster your child to develop their self-discipline, dance is a great option.
