What are the Nutcracker dances?

In first act there is the Party Scene, where there is a Christmas party at Clara's house. The children and the adults do different dances like they are dancing at a party. Then there is the Battle Scene, where the mouse king and the Nutcracker have a sword fight (still graceful). After that, the Snowflake Scene, where dancers dance as if they are snow in a breeze. Thereafter, the Nutcracker and Clara (the Sugar Plum Queen) perform numerous solos and duets. THere are short variations performed by Chinese dancers, Mirlitons, Bon Bons, Arabian dancers, and a single male Russian Dancer. There also is a finale where all of the dancers perform in, but remember that there are many different versions of the Nutcracker, and this is only Chikoske's version. (Sorry about spelling!) If you're wondering how I could answer all of these, is becausse I am a professional dancer in the Nutcracker, and am dancing as a snowflake and a Chinese dancer! You're welcome...
