Ballet is the basis for all types of dancing, including jazz. Many girls take ballet classes at a young age, but not many carry through with it. Ballet is an extremely hard business to get into, because there are very limited spaces.
Jazz, on the other hand, is more popular in the sense that more people do it. There are a lot more jobs available for good jazz dancers as opposed to ballet dancers. However, with jazz being more polar, it is harder to get a job with.
So overall, I'd say jazz is more popular seeing as more people do it, mostly because it is more commercial and modern.

What is the difference between jazz dancing and ballet dancing?
The difference can be the way you dance. Usually ballet is about the technique more than anything else. Jazz is about the flow of movement to movement and how it all looks together. There are also diffrent because of there shoes. In ballet there are ballet shoes and ballet point shoes. In jazz there are jazz shoes. Ballet and Jazz both are great fun. I am in both. They both have the same diciplene which for any dancing of dance team has a lot of diciplene. Hope this helps you!
