The results show that dance learning at Sanggar Arum Bandung is able to instill positive character values in children through the practice process, time discipline, and interaction between trainers and students. The conclusion of this study shows that dance learning is effective as a medium for character building in early childhood, so it can be an alternative learning that supports the development of children's personality and social skills.
