The Artificial Intelligence (AI) applied to dance pedagogy is a revolutionary innovation in the process of movement competencies instruction, rehearsal, and assessment. This paper assesses how the AI-based instructional systems affect dance education by comparing them to the existing learning theory, principles in motor learning, and the kinesthetic intelligence. The proposed framework, based on constructivism, embodied cognition, and experiential learning, will make AI an intelligent educational companion as opposed to a substitute of human instructors. To examine the movement accuracy, time coordination, and quality of expression, AI technologies that consist of computer vision-based pose estimation, machine learning-based skill evaluation, and sensor-based motion capture are used. A mixed-methodology is used which implies dance students and teachers of different styles and levels of expertise. The data is gathered by video recordings, wearable devices, questionnaires, and semi-structured interviews, which allows quantifying and qualifying it. The AI models are trained to give personalized feedback, identify the movement errors, and give adaptive learning paths, both in real-time and offline learning. Comparative analysis demonstrates that AI-assisted learning results in definitive conclusions of movement accuracy, time, and expressiveness in comparison to conventional pedagogy. Moreover, learners are found to be more engaged, they are more self-aware, and autonomous in practice sessions. The results show that AI systems that are pedagogically aligned can be used to facilitate reflective learning, promote individualized instruction, and supplement teacher-led dance learning.
