Dance in schools

My philosopher of dance from England goes on to advocate ballroom dance as an alternative to casual sexual encounters and concludes his article with a push for dance in the schools. "Dance, properly taught, will contribute to physical fitness. it will also do many other things for us, as individuals and as a community, which sport cannot do. The nub is that what passes for dance in many schools is precisely that sort of free expressive movement which will teach neither the virtues made possible by set dance forms nor develop the sense of community and entry into a tradition which they necessarily bring."
