We were having a debate about this in our Writing class earlier. Half of the class was split on this. Some say it is an art, some say it isn't. Opinions?

Yes, it can be, depending on the application of the performance or body to the conscious use of aesthetic quality and creative delineation. A martial art (which can be a sport, such as boxing), for instance, is an art of warfare (hence "martial"). The physical administration of the concept is quantified as art.
