 DANCE- is a performing art form
consisting of purposefully selected
sequences of human movement.
 This movement has aesthetic and
symbolic value, and is acknowledged
as dance by performers and observers
within a particular culture.
 Dance can be categorized and
described by its choreography, by its
repertoire of movements, or by its
historical period or place of origin.
 An important distinction is to be drawn
between the contexts of theatrical and
participatory dance, although these
two categories are not always
completely separate; both may have
special functions, whether social,
ceremonial, competitive, erotic,
martial, or sacred/liturgical.
 Other forms of human movement are
sometimes said to have a dance-like
quality, including martial arts,
gymnastics, cheerleading, figure
skating, synchronized swimming,
marching bands, and many other
forms of athletics.
ELEMENTS OF DANCE
 BODY
 ACTION
 SPACE
 TIME ENERGY
FOLK DANCE- is developed by people that
reflect the life of the people of a certain
country or region.
 Not all ethnic dances are folk dances.
For example, ritual dances or dances of
ritual origin are not considered to be folk
dances.
 Ritual dances are usually called
"Religious dances" because of their
purpose.
 The terms "ethnic" and "traditional" are
used when it is required to emphasize
the cultural roots of the dance.
 In this sense, nearly all folk dances are
ethnic ones. If some dances, such as
polka, cross ethnic boundaries and even
cross the boundary between "folk" and
"ballroom dance", ethnic differences are
often considerable enough to mention.
ETHNIC DANCE- It has various
subcategories, such as folk dancing. Folk
dances are activities that are an intrinsic
part of a culture.
 This includes dances such as the
Mexican hat dance or the Argentine
tango.
 It is not just that the dances come from
a particular ethnic group but that the
dances help to define that group.
 A dance that originated with a particular
ethnic group from Asia, Africa, the
Middle East, the United States or
anywhere else counts as ethnic.
However, if it is not popular or well-
known, then the dance often does not
count as a folk dance.
MODERN DANCE -is often considered to
have emerged as a rejection of, or rebellion
against, classical ballet.
 Socioeconomic and cultural factors also
contributed to its development. In the
late 19th century, dance artists such as
Isadora Duncan, Maud Allan, and Loie
Fuller were pioneering new forms and
practices in what is now called aesthetic
or free dance for performance.
 These dancers disregarded ballet's strict
movement vocabulary, the particular,
limited set of movements that were
considered proper to ballet, and stopped
wearing corsets and pointe shoes in the
search for greater freedom of movement.
