The purpose of this study was using action research to investigate the effects of gratitude intervention on gratitude attitudes on students of a selective dance class. Our data includes observational field notes, reflection journal, teaching video record, and interview transcribed verbatim; and we used inductive thematic analysis to analyze them. Results found gratitude intervention changed students' attitudes and behaviors. Specifically, students became more sympathetic, peaceful, and reducing complaints. Further, the instructor in this class also leaned skills in integrating character education into class and became more sympathetic and happy. We suggested gratitude intervention can be an ideal education in the physical education settings. It is not only building harmonious interpersonal relationships between instructors and students but also teach students how to extend their appreciation toward someone who helps him/her in life. Also, gratitude education reduces students' complaints and interpersonal tensions. In conclusion, we recommend implementing a gratitude education in physical education settings because of its special healing effects and promoting positive strengths for physical education.
