Example of an occupational dance in the Philippines?
Buti Buti
(Jolo, Sulu) The Badjao, known as sea gypsies, are born, raised, and die on boats called lipa or buti. The Badjao have a remarkable affinity with their "home boat" that a dance was created in its honor. Deviating from the traditional pangalay, the buti-buti is an occupational dance that mimics the daily activities of men rowing, diving, casting and pulling nets, harvesting and bringing home the catch while women use rattan baskets to gather shellfish. The accompanying song or Leleng, describes the buti-buti's gentle sway, similar to the graceful walk of the badjao lady.

What are good ballet leg stretches for someone who can already do oversplits?
I am very sorry to tell you this. but I have got to admit that that is...... a pretty stupid question. If you can do the over splits to all sides you don't quite have to stretch anymore. Just keep on stretchin your oversplits and try and find a way to make stretches that you did before actually stretch you. Also, if you you have a "weak" flexibility point, just stretch that. Now if its just weaker but still pretty flexible, I already answered your question. Maybe that answer was a bit harsh. Well I'm sorry if it hurt your feelings.

What is the difference between classical ballet neoclassical and contemporary ballet?
Well classical ballet is slow and flowey and in contemporary ballet it has got a jazz in it
That's a pretty good question. Well, to be honest, classical ballet has a slow, fluid motion to it. Neoclassical is very retro, sort of using the style of the long surviving classical dance with the type of music and motion.
Contemporary ballet is more modern, faster. More rapid.
Classical ballet is the foundation of all ballet dance. It is the name given to the art form which spawned neo-classical and, later, contemporary ballet. All ballet dancers are trained in the classical style.What we call Classical ballets today are generally those that came from the latter half of the 19th century, when the development of pointe shoes led to a dramatic rise in the popularity of the art form. Ballets such as "Giselle", "Les Syhlpides" and "Swan Lake" constitute the Classical repertoire. Most often, there is a story to the ballet, but there are exceptions, such as "Pas de Quatre".
Neoclassicism is generally attributed to George Balanchine, founder of the New York City Ballet. He favored technique over theatrics, so many of his ballets are performed with no sets. Very few Balanchine ballets have a story line.
Contemporary ballet is often choreographed to modern music. Take, for instance, "Billboards" by the Joffery Ballet. It is energetic, expressive, and dynamic. It is diverse as our culture, but still looks best when done by classically trained artists.

Why do porcupines dance in captivity?
"Sometimes when one porcupine met another face to face on a branch, they both anchored themselves with their tails, sat up on their hind legs and indulged in the most ridiculous boxing-match, ducking and slapping with their front paws, feinting and lunging, giving left hooks, uppercuts and body blows, but never once making contact. Throughout this performance (which lasted perhaps for a quarter of an hour) their expression never changed from one of bewildered and benign interest. Then as though prompted by an invisible signal, they went down on all fours, and scrambled away to different parts of the tree. I could never discover the purpose of these boxing bouts nor identify the winner, but they afforded me an immense amount of amusement." ENCOUNTERS WITH ANIMALS © Gerald Durrell 1958
