We chose Phenomenological Method by Seidman(1998) for analyze the data. Based on the analysis of the collected date, the following conclusions were reached ; first, the male students who attending dance sport class are decided to take this class because of their direct and indirect experiences from the past, recommendation from their surround people, and through the moves. However, they hesitate to attend dance sport at first because of the feminine image that dance activity has. Second, the male students have expectation through the class such as effect on body figure, entertainment, hobby, leisure, social fellowship and dating. Especially, the students who have experience in dance sports are expecting on direct values as physical effect, enjoyment and hobby. In other hand, new students who had never experience in dance sport art interested more in indirect values like fellowship and dating during the period, the students who have experience on dance dport are tending to disappoint on their physical effect after the class, otherwise new students are satisfy with their unexpected physical effect. Third, although male students who attending dance sport are enjoying their class and eagerly participate in the class, they still consider this subject does not match with male student and Dance Sport is just one of the requirement course in college.
