From the American movie ‘Center Stage’, the character Charlie Sims said,
“Whatever you feel, just dance it.” Dance is more than just a sport, it’s a passion. Dance
is something you work hard for, something you put all of your spare time and effort into.
Dance is a sport that you never want to give up on. No matter how exhausted you are on
that dance floor, you may not give up. You need to dance until the very end, until you are
the best dancer you can possibly be. (Annah, 2014)
2.2. Dance “work” of art (or “dance work”) is a performable and re-
performable artwork with a particular history of production, an abstract,
structural “type” of which the performances are “tokens”, a work created by a
choreographer that has a historical identity, meaning, and continuity that is
dependent at least to some extent upon what the choreographer intended, a
work whose performances are performed and interpreted by dancers, an object
with perceptible artistic properties, an intentional object that exists in a
broadly institutional context under a concept of art, and a re-constructible and
re-performable object (McFee, 2011).
3.3. Dances that move your whole body are the best for weight loss.
Dances that require you to keep your arms up while moving your feet are
good for weight loss. Dancing will help reduce obesity because it will help
you reduce your weight. If you are currently obese, you should start out with a
slower style of dancing, and as you are able to, increase the speed and
intensity of your dance over time. Miller, J. (2018)
4.3. Dancing can be a way to stay fit for people of all ages, shapes and
sizes. Dancing can improve muscle tone, strength and endurance. Dancing is a
great way to meet new friends (Better Health Channel, 2013).
4.5. Dancing also has benefits for our health as it improved condition
of our heart and lungs, stronger bones and reduced risk of osteoporosis,
improved mental functioning and improve psychological wellbeing (Better
Health Chanel, 2013)
V. CONCLUSION
5.2. "You have to give your best, in order to BE the best" is a quote that
the Bomber Dance Team coaches say to the dancers’ moments before every
competition. Dancing is the best medium which people show the world their
true colors, showing who they can be. Through dancing, we understand our
emotions and know ourselves better by understanding our talents in such a
way that we did not know until we danced. When we dance, we connect with
music that affects our body, our thoughts, and the mind. Dancing is deeply
personal and it’s an expression of something within us something that we can
only share with the world through action. Dancing is not just about the
movements we make but the moment we make. Dancing shapes us to be better
not only physically but morally. Dance contributes a lot in refining ourselves.
Dancing is for everyone. It is not a ticket which is only limited to those who
availed it but water that supply anyone. Dance is more than just a beautiful art
form. It is somehow a world where we are graciously welcomed.
