Recent research reveals that engaging in four or more years of arts training can significantly improve neural pathways, leading to enhanced thought processing and learning. Moreover, there are direct correlations between arts training and superior academic skills in math and reading, as well as improved socialization skills, including communication and creative problem-solving. Boys and girls who participate in dance also benefit from improved physical health and coordination, which can enhance their abilities in sports and cultivate healthy lifestyle habits that positively impact their overall adult health.
