How can dance show expression?
Static arts like painting sculpture and architecture have the advantage of permanence over time. Performing arts like dance, music and theater have the advantage of being able to use time itself as an element of the art. They can also incorporate the other forms of art into their productions to create multi-sensory experiences. Any art is about the proper balance of its elements. Defining 'proper balance' is what gives rise to endless variations on artistic movements and trends. Dance uses color, texture, visual composition, complementary and opposing movements, stillness and coordination with music to bring about its own balanced whole. If all language is metaphor, then art is metaphor raised to a new level. All of the elements of dance, when balanced in a coherent way, stand as a work of art without the need to be interpreted to death if viewed from a 'classic' point of view. On the other hand, the balanced elements may evoke, sometimes but not always by design, a certain kind of thought, feeling or atmosphere. This would be more a 'romantic' view. The best art engages both the mind (classic) and the heart (romantic), and this might be the most difficult balance of all for any art to achieve.

Ok.... Here is a list of stuff you will need to perform a rain dance Blue or turquoise clothes Blue or turquoise jewelry Cattail headdresses (optional) Open, leveled field 3 cattail braids Hair in bun (if girl) Make sure you are wearing the blue/turquoise clothes and jewelry, cattail headress and hair in a bun. (if girl). Put the cattail braids in a triangle on the ground. Spin around clockwise saying "rain rain come rain" until you fall over. Once you fall take your time to regain your balance. Get up and ask the creator to give rain and tell him good specific reasons why you and others need it. Btw I think you have to be part native American for it to work (like me) if you are not you can still try...... But anyways this ceremony should not be taken lightly, for if done properly it can work. Remember to do this respectfully as you remember the natives.
What does feet positions mean in dance?
The five positions of the feet come from ballet, and are the foundation for many movements in ballet technique.
Aside from static positions (we perform plies at the barre in first, second, fourth, and fifth, and often land jumps in first or fifth), the five positions also create landmarks for the feet to move through during more dynamic movements. For example, the chasse passes through fourth or second position, and assemble is a movement in which your feet meet in fifth in the air.
All five positions are "turned out", meaning the toes point away from the midline of the body, but derivations are used in modern dance and contemporary ballet in which the feet are in parallel.

What is the best way to go about learning to play boogie woogie on piano?
Practice! It is the only way. Yes, it can be very boring, but the more you do the better you get and the more fun it becomes. There are games that are available that make learning a fun process, for example Fast Keys drastically improves your note recognition quickly, and it's free. You can play it at: http://martypapa.blogspot.com/2009/06/fast-keys.html If you are asking what the most efficient way to "sightread" piano is, the only acceptable way in my opinion is to learn piano, practice the music and eventually you will notice patterns and they will become familiar to you. Many people I know who can sightread piano have just taken piano lessons for a long period of time. There are other methods I've heard of that are supposedly quicker, but fast isn't always better. Seeing as I haven't invested in such projects, I would not recommend them. Sing the rhythems....then find the hand positions...and lastly check for black notes and chords. =answer= try to distinguish the middle c, first of all. then, try to slowly find other spots, such as d and e. memorize the first few notes on the music, and continuously practice. in the first few months or years, you might have some trouble reading all the notes quickly, and you might have to pause and count the spaces from the key you are playing now and the note you are trying to read, and figure out the place on the keyboard. have patience. i learned to sight read rapidly when i was nine, and it took me two years to gain that speed, and i started the piano when i was seven. you can do it! Practice hard, like me, and you might even be able to read an entire movement of a Mozart Sonata in fifteen minutes (like me, currently 12) If you already have some skill at practicing and playing piano, and want to improve your sight-reading skills: This becomes harder to do as you grow older. (The best way to learn sight-reading is to start early.) For adults, my experience is the best way to improve sight-reading is to simply do a lot of it. -Look at the music before-hand to familiarize yourself with the tempo, key and rhythm. -Try to imagine how it sounds in your head before you begin. -Be patient. -Go as slow as you must to get the notes right, and keep the rhythm steady. -Always try to look ahead for what's coming next. Look over the bar line to the next measure. -Keep going. Don't stop. If you make an error, don't go back. Don't speed up faster than you can get it right. -The speed will come with time. There are no short-cuts, just invest a lot of time. Good luck.

For me, Dancing is a great way of expressing myself. I have never been good with words; dancing allows me to express things that cannot just be said, whether it be happiness or sadness, anger and rage, joy and elation. It feels like a way to just let things flow without holding back. Dancing is a great way to meet people and connect with people.

How did contemporary dance develop?
This is a huge & complex answer - but in the short term I suggest you look at the life & work of Isadora Duncan who is often quoted as being the mother of contemporary dance. Then you should consider the work of Ruth St Denis, Ted Shawn & Doris Humphrey. After that move on to Martha Graham & later Merce Cunningham & Jose Limon. If you want the development of contemporary dance in the UK you need to look at the impact of Robin Howard (link to Martha Graham) & the London Contemporary Dance Theatre (& Dance School). This includes the work of people like Robert North, Siobhan Davies, Richard Alston, Chris Bruce, and onto some the the current younger British choreographers.

Just look it up it's really easy to find
Ballet is hard because you have to be flexible, athletic, and so much more...but still make it look easy and elegant!
It will take a while to catch on to it keep practicing like I did, and with persistence and after years of training...you could become a professional!
However, don't dream to big since no matter how good you are...if you do not have the perfect body, you might not even make the audition in countries like Russia. The US is more lenient but still.
And it is NOT all about being skinny so do not become anorexic....most girls who make it are naturally that skinny. Food=energy....you need energy to dance well. So eat!
You also need to have super high arches....don't force your arches b/c for normal life....and shoes....high arches are not very practical or comfortable.
This is just a glimpse of the various reasons why ballet is hard....but as all ballerinas know....it is SO fulfilling! :))))

What was the reason for the death of Indian film star Deviya bharti?
Divya was under the influence of drugs and alcohol when she fell to death.
There have inquiries into the manner of her death and there have been more investigative books , in the last four decades .But the mystery remains unsolved. There has not been any major inquiry into Divya's death except by the Coroner's Court in Bombay and the verdict was less than satisfactory.
Friends had claimed that he was out when Divya jumped/fell/was flung to death , five floors down. That Divya was high on drugs and alcohol ( rather low since she was described as 'very disturbed' ) was corroborated by all, but more suspicious was her climbing up the balcony and standing on the parapet without anyone trying to stop her.
