WORLD OF DANCE

Dance comes in different forms. All dance styles are not alike and they are distinctive. In this unit, we will
explore the nature of several traditional and contemporary dances. The first part will deal with dances that are
considered an art form, and the second part covers dances that may be performed and utilized for local or national
competitions.
Folk dances are the indigenous dances of any specific “folks” or the common people. They are tradetional
customary or recreational dance forms of given country which have evolved naturally and were handed down across
generations
Folk dances are related to everything of importance in our daily lives, such as customs, rituals, and
occupations of a specific group of people. Most of these dances are related in origin to religious belief, stemming
from emotions, superstitions, festivals, ceremonies of birth, courtship, marriage, death, war, and countless themes
common to all people around the world.

Brief of Ballet History


It was in the 15 century during the Renaissance period when ballet began in Italy. It started as a performance
in the royal court where the male servants would execute a movement related to the course they are serving during a
court dinner. At that time, the French king, francis I of the house of valois had many contacts with Italy and was able
to witness one of the dinner ballets. He knew many outstanding figures of the Italian Renaissance and he became
well acquainted with the ideas and artistic efforts that developed and flourished in Europe.
Classical vs Contemporary Ballet
Although they do not vary in nature, classical ballet is known for its exactness of techniques that highlights
pointed toes and turnouts, high extension and gracefulness. It also uses traditional mine that utilizes gestures for
conversation instead of words.
Ballet in the Philippines started a little later compared to European and western countries, it does not fall far
behind when it comes to producing world class ballet performances. Several ballet companies such as ballet
Philippines and Ballet Manila have prospered and recognized internationally. They also have trained and produced
dancers of international calibre.
