Dance, an ancient performing art, has accompanied humanity for thousands of years. From ancient ritual dances praying for good harvests, to majestic court dances, and to modern, creative dance forms, dance always reflects the culture, society, and soul of humanity.

Classical Dance: Refinement and Majesty

Ballet, with its refinement and grace, is an icon of Western classical dance art. The graceful jumps, the precise movements down to the millimeter, all require tireless practice from the dancers.
