What is international ballroom dance?

There are two main styles of ballroom dancing -- American and International. American style is danced primarily in, you guessed it, America. :) It's also not as standardized as International style, which is danced just about everywhere else in the world (and in the US, too). Here in the US where I am, American style tends to be used more often for social dancing while International style tends to be used primarily in competitions. This doesn't mean that you can't compete in American style or dance International style socially. Personally, I prefer International style and dance it socially all the time. :) People will dance either American or International style socially, as they choose, and competitions normally include both styles as well, so it's good to know both styles (at least in the US). As for the dances themselves, they are grouped into two categories for each style. In American style, the categories are called Smooth and Rhythm and in International style they are called Standard and Latin. For the most part, the Standard and Smooth categories contain the same dances and the Latin and Rhythm categories contain basically the same dances. Here's the breakdown of the dances (at least the ones used in competitions) by style and category followed by the usual abbreviations used for each. There are placed in the order that they are danced in competitions. * American Style (the ISTD's syllabus) ** Smooth -- Waltz (W), Tango (T), Foxtrot (F), Viennese Waltz (VW) ** Rhythm -- Cha Cha (C), Rumba (R), East Coast Swing (Sw), Bolero (B), Mambo (Ma) * International Style (the ISTD's syllabus, the the IDTA's syllabus, and a combined version) ** Standard -- Waltz (W), Tango (T), Viennese Waltz (VW), Foxtrot (F), Quickstep (Q) ** Latin -- Cha Cha (C), Samba (S), Rumba (R), Paso Doble (PD), Jive (J)

How do you change people's negative mindset about male ballet dancers?

Today the mind set that people have about male ballet dancers has changed a great deal compared to even as short a time ago as 30 years. you can change the mindset in those people close to you by simply being what you are and those that are not close to you and have some preconceived ideas shouldn't matter anyway you cant educate everyone

ANSWER: First you march on Washington and demand that civil rights be given to male ballet dancers. A male dancer parade or two wouldn't hurt and bake sales and cake walks are always fun. If male ballet dancers weren't so uptight all the time maybe people wouldn't take such a negative view of them. I think male ballet dancers have a negative mindset about people who don't go to the ballet, which only drives a bigger wedge into the culture gap. Perhaps we could have a town hall meeting and resolve this. Also, maybe the male ballet dancers could petition the court, or apply for a fictitious business name with the city and find a better term than male ballet dancers.

What is the difference between ballet and modern dance?

Modern Dance and BalletThere are numerous differences between modern dance and ballet. Classical ballet as we know it today has developed over 100s and 100s of years. It has become a very specific technique that requires much patience and hard workfor both the student, professional,and teacher, similar to a concert pianist or a famous writer.

Modern, or 'contempory' dance, is relatively new in comparison to Ballet. This does not mean the structure or difficulty is any less. Specific techniques have been developed over the past 100 yrs or so that began originally to rebel against the poise and formal structure of classical ballet.Modern can be danced with or without ballet shoes, but rarely do modern dancers use pointe shoes. The rebellion against classical in part was inspired by dancers wanting to be more 'earthy' so pointe shoes were too 'etheral'. Both the style and music are fundemental differences between the two.

Each have thoughts that have inspired dancers/choreographers to express themselves through the art of dance in different ways.

For example, ballet tends to "turn their feet out" and "point their toes." But in modern dance, anything goes, since they can be earthy, they can walk heel, toe. But in ballet you, normally, walk on your toes. Modern or Contemporary dancers can flex their feet when they kick, classical ballet normally looks down on that.

Ballet is more demanding on the body, modern dancing is more free...

In ballet you have to work more on posture, turn out, core strength,

When you get to a certain level you start pointe work.....

It is easier to go from ballet to modern, than from modern to ballet....

Ballet also gets you great legs, and better posture.... ballet is better for you and your body... but modern is more fun, and less stressful....

Were did clogs originate from?

Clogs (a type of wooden shoe, can be made from wilow, poplar, birch, beech or alder wood) orignate from The Netherlands, Belgium, Sweeden and Denmark. These 'clogs' were generally worn over the top of leather/fabric shoes to give the foot a lift above the mud, and poorer people who couldn't afford to buy shoes would wear wood directly against the skin, this was the birth of the clog.

What is the difference between Jazz Dance and Modern Dance?

The difference between modern and jazz dance, is that in modern dance the movements come from your own feelings and expression. Modern also has fundamentals in ballet and focuses on taking up space. Jazz dance is an older type of dance and the steps do not come from your feelings. It is faster paced and involves attitude. Both of these dance forms have traces in ballet.
