Dance is a type of art that generally involves movement of the body, usually rhythmic and to music, performed in many different cultures and used as a form of expression, social interaction and exercise or presented in a spiritual or performance setting.
Definitions of what constitutes dance are dependent On social, cultural, aesthetic, artistic and moral constraints and range from functional movement (such as folk dance) to virtuoso techniques such as ballet. Dance can be participatory, social or performed for an audience. It can also be ceremonial, competitive or erotic. Dance movements may be without significance in themselves, such as in Ballet or European folk dance, or have a gestural vocabulary/symbolic system as in many Asian dances. Dance can embody or express ideas, emotions or tell a story.
Dancing has evolved many styles. African dance is interpretative. ballet, ballroom (such as the waltz), and tango are classical styles of dance while square dancing and the electric slide are forms of step dances. More recently evolved are break dancing and other forms of street dance, often associated with hip hop culture.

Comment by Tinllo Jiang on May 8, 2013 at 12:23am Hello everyone! I'm an English-major student in South China Normal University. Recently I'm learning Latin Dance and Fox Trot. I'm really interested in different languages, dances and cultures. So connect with me if we could exchange brilliant ideas! :)

Comment by Tani on February 2, 2013 at 4:33am Dear dancers, located in Guangzhou. If u miss practice, jams, proper street-dance life - please join this group or send me a message.
I'd like to envite you to practice hip-hop, house, funky-styles etc. We've got a good variant of studio, just looking for people who are in a dancing theme and who are missing proper practice and skill growth.
