There is interest in neuroscience in investigating the connection between the brain and movement, which is evident with studies with athletes. More recently, studies investigating this connection emerged in dance. Based on evolutionary psychology studies, dance highlights the connection of movement, art, mind, brain, and its functions. From this background, the authors seek to understand whether dance can influence the brain, its functions, and, ultimately, human development. With Bronfenbrenner's ecological theory, they investigate dance context and skills developed by dancers. Resorting to research on the effects of dance on the brain, they noticed that dance impacts brain structure and functions and that it can aid human development.
