Ballet stemmed from the court dances in King Louis XIV's palace. When ballet first started, it was King Louis XIV who requested that it be developed further, as he enjoyed watching it (and doing it, albeit not that well) so much. Because of it's royal roots, ballet was very popular; but you had to be invited to the palace to see it!
