The dance training of posture, movement and perception optimizes stability and dynamics and helps to achieve more competence in movement. The body can better fulfil its role as an instrument of expression and perception. At the same time, the organism becomes more permeable for a free flow of energy, as a basis for a harmonious natural vibration.

On the emotional level, music and dance playfully bring emotions into movement. This form of expression in dance helps people to come into harmony with themselves.

On the mental level, dance hology trains the ability of concentration and memory. This happens especially through the rehearsal of choreographed movement sequences in the group.
