Latin dance offers a unique dimension that traditional aerobic exercise does not, namely interpersonal communication and interactivity. Dancing may provide additional cognitive benefits compared to other forms of PA, such as walking. Latin dance also provides a unique dimension that traditional aerobic exercise does not, that is, it is a complex sensory-motor rhythmic activity that integrates a variety of physical, cognitive and social factors. Based on the unique charm of Latin dance and previous articles on the influence of dance on social physique anxiety and physical self-esteem, there are few articles on Latin dance, and none of them have studied the influence of Latin dance on these two variables. This study analyzes the Latin dance on the social physique anxiety and physical self-esteem of middle school girls and provides theoretical support for the study to improve the social physique anxiety and physical self-esteem of middle school students, as well as to promote Latin dance.

The Social Physique Anxiety Scale (SPAS) was employed to measure Social physique anxiety. The respondents are asked to rate 12 statements on a 5-point Likert type scale.

Examples of items are: 'I am comfortable with the appearance of my physique' and 'Unattractive features of my physique/figure make me nervous in certain social settings'. Previous research with SPAS has demonstrated test-retest reliability and internal consistency with Cronbach's alpha values of around 0.90. | Post-test: 12 weeks end | |
