A recent article at sharpbrains.com by Judith Lynne Hanna, PhD, author of Dancing to Learn: The Brain’s Cognition, Emotion, and Movement, is citing “more than 400 studies related to interdisciplinary neuroscience [that] reveal the hidden value of dance.” More and more scientific evidence is showing that what we do at the Greenville Ballet School training young dancers is also helping them to become better learners in their academic pursuits.
