It is found that dance classes has influence on improving emotional intelligence, self-efficacy and peer competence of elementary schoolers whose egos start to be formed, which means that physical expression activities act as not only providing physical/emotional/social development and infinite imagination, but also improving social/emotional competence which can guarantee children`s happy lives. Thus in order to develop children`s healthy egos, dance classes through physical expression activities are mostly essential education for the growth and development in childhood. They should be formed to provide better educational effects as more studies on this should be conducted in the future.
