Yes, based on some interpretations of Islamic teachings, teaching dance is considered absolutely forbidden (haram).
Some Islamic scholars cite hadith (sayings and actions of the Prophet Muhammad) as evidence that both music and dancing are discouraged or prohibited in Islam. For example, the reference mentions a hadith where the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) covered his ears upon hearing music. This is interpreted by some to mean music is undesirable. Because dance is often associated with music, and can also involve elements considered immodest, it falls under the same prohibition according to this interpretation.
It's important to acknowledge that interpretations of Islamic texts vary. Some scholars hold more lenient views regarding music and dance, depending on the context, style, and intention behind the activity.
Therefore, the permissibility of teaching dance within an Islamic framework depends heavily on individual interpretations and adherence to specific religious rulings.
