Tap dancing was created because not all people had the access to live music or musical instruments, so by putting taps or pieces of metal to their feet they could produce a sound and entertain.
The legendary ballerina Marie Carmago did a lot to change the fashion of ballet so as to evolve it. She shortened the ballet skirt to allow more leg and foot movement, put on the now currently fashionable ballet tights--even cut the heels off her shoes so she could have more respectable footwork.

Difficult question to answer as companies pop up quickly and close quickly in a city like New York. Narrow down your search. As in do you want to know the ballet companies/contemp companies or the commercial ones. Generally the bigger the company and the longer they have been around the easier it is to contact or find out about them. Start with New York City Ballet, and The American Ballet Theatre. Juilard School may be able to help you also.

How do you do the dance Zumba?
There is no particular way to do Zumba. I take a Zumba class at my dance school and my teacher recently got her certification to teach it. But mainly it is rapid latin dancing with lots of cardio moves. You dance to fun pop music (basically whatever is out) and if you take a class with a teacher, they will get different routines from the company to do with you. You should try it, just remember to always drink water because it is very tiring!
How do you clean inside Latin dance shoes?
To clean the inside of Latin dance shoes, you will need these supplies:
2 clean damp cloths
Mild liquid soap
Tissue Paper (as used in wrapping packages)
Place a drop of mild liquid soap onto a damp cloth and rub it into the cloth. Gently wipe all the surfaces inside the shoes with the cloth. Using the second clean damp cloth without soap, thoroughly wipe the inside surfaces of the shoes again.
Gently wad the tissue paper into small bundles to stuff into the shoes, just enough to help retain the shape of the shoes, and to absorb excess moisture.
After the shoes are dry, you can insert scented fabric softener sheets inside the shoes, if desired.

What is the difference between Northern and Southern Drum in Native American dance?
The dance, the song, the drum.
All three of these are extremely important to the Native American culture and way of life. This is clearly seen by their use in Pow wows, shows, and contests across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The drum beat symbolizes the heart beat, either of the human being or Mother Earth, depending on the tribal or regional beliefs, living and thriving in the circle of life. The song is the voice of the Native peoples, the dance a tribute to movement and the cycle of life, both honoring and thanking the Creator who brought about and cares for all life in existence.
Northern and Central America where the Native people made their home, and where they still dwell today, is a vast land filled with all different ecosystems and landscapes. From the strong Rocky Mountains surrounded by vast, green forests, to the low, hot valley of what is today Phoenix, Arizona, to the Great Plains which stretch all the way from Oklahoma to the Prairies of Canada.
These different regions, though having many similarities, do differ in certain cultural and spiritual aspects of their lives. The tribes of the North and those of the South have different ceremonial practices, including the use of the drum and song.
Northern singers, often having a more falsetto pitch than those in the south, sit together, men and women alike, around the drum. The drum, often a small commercial bass drum, is about 26 inches in diameter, with about 7-8 male drummers and 2-3 female drummers. The Southern drums are usually larger, wooden drums covered in some type of hide, with only men allowed to sit around and strike the drum in the inner circle, while the women stand around them in the second row, also singing.
Another difference in the two region's drumming and singing are the songs themselves. Songs vary greatly even from tribe to tribe, but there are certain differences in the organization and format of these songs from the Northern and Southern tribes which include, but are not limited to: rhythm, different placement of the chorus and refrains, lyrics, and lyrical meaning.
