The art of dance in education, especially elementary school education has a positive impact, Not only from the various art conservation efforts, but also for the sake of education itself is able to develop skills that have, and can improve the physical and motor development better in children.
In addition, dance arts education can make a child's achievement in school. Dancing has some physical elements that must be developed through practice.
The elements that must be prepared include strength, speed, endurance, coordination, and accuracy.
For the Aged child (9-10 years), he can develop his own talent potential by creating a movement through the expression of a soul or a motion media. We, as a prospective educator, must need knowledge not only in the field of subjects, but the art of dance must also be understood. The skill of a teacher in understanding the characteristics of an elementary school child is indispensable.

But in fact, the ability to dance on elementary school fifth-grade students at Karawang is still low.

Based on the observations conducted on 03
December 2018 showed that students have difficulty in dancing skills. This is due to external factors and internal factors. Judging by external factors, there is no teacher who can train students and lack of venue facilities and media in the form of speakers to teach their students to practice so that they can impede the process of training students in dancing. In addition, it is seen from the internal factor that the creativity of students is low in mastering the dance moves so that students are limited in thinking to develop and create new movements and difficult to adjust the movement with the music.
Mountakis (Munandar, 2014:17) expressed creativity that is a knowledge that can reveal new personal traits to individuals, outside environment, and so on. Thus, creativity is an ability that can produce a work of his own thoughts. Aside from the results of his own thinking, creativity can be generated with a new image that can be seen in his daily life. According to Guilford (Munandar,2014:65) said that creativity is a divergent thought as a mental operation that demands the use of creative thinking skills, including smoothness, flexibility, originality, and elaboration (breakdown).
Thus, the dancing skills need to be supported by creativity in creating exciting dance movements; people who have high creativity will have different dance concepts with others, have novelty and authenticity. So the results of the dance movement that is the process of the child's creativity will be an interesting dance movement and different from the others.

Dancing Ability
Dancing is an expression of the human soul expressed by beautiful rhythmic movements.
Someone who is doing a dance is called a dancer.
Dancing is not the same as playing games, having anonymity, or exercising. Someone can be said to dance when they realize that they are dancing, not playing, not exercising. Someone is called dancing when he realizes that he is expressing something through the dance that is being danced. Something that can be in the form of ideas, feelings, experiences, thoughts and not move spontaneously, because someone who is dancing moves based on movements that have been arranged and arranged (Soedarsono, 2002: 01).
Dance can be interpreted as the beauty of the motion of the members of the human body that is moving, rhythmic, and soulful. Soedarsono stated that dance is an expression of the human soul through beautiful rhythmic movements (Anggraeni and Alpian, 2018: 01). Dance can express the soul's expression and can convey a certain meaning to be expressed to others. The phrase can be a symbolic or abstract expression that is difficult to understand or express. However, all these elements are aesthetic elements.
Dance According to Widaryanto (2007:4) is a patterned movement. The motion in question is a movement that does not just move but has a certain pattern that forms a composition. Dance is referred to as the most ancient art. That is, the most important element in the dance is motion, but it is different from the everyday movements of the day.
The motion in the dance is a pure motion that has been distillation into a motion that has meaning Soedarsono said that every movement expressed in a dance contains a certain character.
For example, if a dancer would describe crying. He When depicting a story, a dancer must be able to master and integrate three main elements: Wiraga, Wirama, and Wirasa (Haryono, 2012:29).
Three main elements become a whole in accordance with the dance character presented. Between the dance moves of a dancer, the execution of the dance rhythm, and the dancer's dancers to the content or meaning or flavor contained is a unit of interlocking hooks firmly. It means a dancer actually dances a dance when it is able to display the relationship of the three elements between the phrases or the parts that are done in total.    Students who have creativity will be fluent in thinking to create dance movements, flexible thinking to combine dance movements with rhythm, can think in an original and elaborative way so that they can think original and detailed in creating different and interesting movements. In contrast to students who have low creativity, students will find it difficult to find interesting ideas in creating dances, and it is difficult to combine movements with rhythm, and tend to mimic existing movements.
