What does it mean when one says metaphysical “approach “? Metaphysics of “dance” ,”Presence”,” books” etc.?

What things constitute Metaphysics and what things don’t ?

I know the textbook definition of Metaphysics but I am unable to grasp how does one apply that word to sentences /phrases like given above. So please explain.

Someone else can correct me if I’m wrong on this but for dance as a specific example, The metaphysics of dance would be focusing not on the “physics” of dance(how to dance, when to dance, where to dance) but on the concept of dance.

What is dance? What does it mean to dance? What is the line between other motion of the body and dance? Why does dance exist? What purpose does dance serve?

So less about actual processes and more about meanings and definitions.
