It really depends on the type of dance. In some dances, the men and women dance seperately with seperate moves for each (Ukrainian and Russian dances). In some, only the men dance (Morris dancing). In others only women dance (belly dancing). Sometimes there are dances where women dance to entice men and others where men dance to entice women. Many dances take advantage of the average greater physical strength of men by having the men lift the women (ballet, some forms of Elizabethan Dance and Western American dance), or have the men show off how high they can leap (some African dances, Elizabethan dances, Russian dance). Others have identical roles for both sexes.
Polynesian dance, often characterized by vibrant movements and expressive storytelling, is frequently performed in traditional attire, including grass skirts. This dance form embodies the rich cultural heritage of the Pacific Islands, showcasing elements of spirituality, history, and community. The grass skirt, made from natural materials like palm fronds, enhances the visual appeal of the dance, highlighting the rhythm and fluidity of the performers' movements. Overall, Polynesian dance is a celebration of identity and connection to the land and ancestors.
