Students learn transferable skills including critical and creative thinking skills, personal and social skills, and intercultural understanding. Dance develops individuals to be reflective thinkers who can pose and solve problems and work both independently and collaboratively.

Genre refers to the broad categories of dance based on shared, identifiable characteristics, such as contemporary, ballet, jazz, tap, ballroom, break-dancing, hop hop and world dance. The genre chosen will depend on the interests and abilities of the student cohort and the expertise of the teacher.
