In almost every form of dance, a dancr must move properly. This is most over with precision and elegance. Moving fluidly is also important for many jazz or lyrical o ballet type dances, too. To be able to do certain moves (leaps, stretches, slpits, turns, ect.), a person must be able to easily move their body in the ways required without harming themself. By being flexible, a dancer is easily able to do so, thus helping them with perfecting their dance technique and the overall effect and look of the actual dance.
