In "Performance" mode, she performs multiple dance routines to her own recorded music. In "Teach Me" mode, she actually shows and tells you how to perform each dance movement ("Arms overhead", "Now, spin"), one at a time. She then has you imitate the movements. And finally, in "Play With Me" mode, Genevieve will move her arms and left leg in direct response to your movements when you wear the included wrist and foot controllers.
