This article reports findings from a literature review study that aimed to describe the general development trends and challenges of contemporary dance pedagogy and point out currently the essential aims and teaching methods in dance pedagogy. Based on the literature review, we identified seven main themes that are further discussed in this article: the holistic model of dance teacher education; self-regulation and reflection in learning; somatic approach; dance as an art form in relation to dance pedagogy; forms of co-operation between different art forms, the role of new technology and mass media in dance education; multicultural approach; gender and sexuality.
