according to ebiswagg in contemporary dance, when you dance it you dance from the inside and you make it soft and interprets whit the dance. you have to be good in ballet for you to dance the modern jazz,because its mostly your ballet technique you use.
Although people may think of ballet as a sport, surprisingly and technically dance is a performing art, not a sport. However, dance as well as specifically ballet requires energy, you also have to make it look easy and flawless, which makes it harder than all sports. This is because dance and ballet is not done to win but to become stronger and entertain. Those who compete might be able to say it's a sport, however this isn't the primary idea of ballet. Ballet is generally known as an art form because of it's beauty and style, this is the same with many other styles of dance.
It's because of the people that dance to it and make it fun and make people tempted to do it.
Yes they do. If you go to a dance shop, you can buy a bag of two, one for each shoe. Some ballet shoes already have an end to them though. But you can buy them in a dance shop where they do not sell their shoes like this
we dance for laughter, we dance for tears, we dance for madness, we dance for fears, we dance for hopes, we dance for screams, we are the dancers, we create dreams. Ballet is the hidden language of the soul! When you do ballet you get this feeling inside you like when rappers fill with aggresion when they rap. it is so much more than just a dance its like you are being driffted away its one of the only forms of dance which tells a story without verbal feedback. plus it was the first forms! of dance to make it worlwide
Since ballet is a type of dance, there are different types of dances contributing to ballet as well as classical. Here are some different genres of dance: Lyrical: usually known as contemporary dance: a type of genre where you use your body to describe emotions and feelings with the music Hip hop: a fast moving type of dance: the genere where you make things your own in a type of dance usually contributing to fast music Jazz: a smooth & steady type of dance: jazz is usually the type of genre that keeps things fresh a smooth Tap: a clacking genre of dance: tap is where you mostly use your feet (which have tap shoes on) to make different sounds and beats to the music.
No one person created the positions. Vaganova, Petipa... Many people have different styles such as Balanchine. The basics are just like the constitution. They are just the basics and then people can add their own twist and make it world known if they want it to.

I suggest that you try doing a compare/contrast exercise - make a table where down one side you have ballet & down the other you have modern dance - then look at key features, e.g. - footwear - modern dancers = usually barefoot, ballet = pointe shoes for females, ballet shoes for males. You should consider features such as music, themes, costume, use of props, set design, location of performance, gender, roles.... Hope this helps
Ballet is not a sport, it's a performing art.In football...it looks good to sweat...for dance NO! You have to have flexibility, athleticism, grace, poise, stage presence, and so much more...but make it look easy! It really depends on how hard you train. If you are serious than it is much harder than sports since you have to be athletic but make it look simple and super easy!
I live in the Midwest and play at several different schools in the area. At a very small ballet school I make $18/hour. At a more prestigious school of the arts, I make $25/hour. Playing for our city's ballet company, I receive $30/hour. As I am good at what I do, I receive requests to play for visiting dance companies and guest master teachers. For those classes I receive $50/hour.
you should never go on pointe not knowing how to use them. When you do ballet lessons it strenghtens your ankles so if you have never had a dance lesson DON'T go on pointe as there is a risk of injuryalso you have to make sure to get them fitted properly and have the right protection. so my advice is not to have pointe shoes unless you have ballet lessons and yourteacher has said you can.
