Dance in America

Dance in America

Dance is a familiar subject to all people, regardless of nationality, race, gender, ideology and religion. What's more, dance is an indispensable part of life. There was dance before people existed, dance in the harmonious arrangement and movement of the celestial bodies, dance in nature and later, when people began to inhabit this earth, they danced, too. Actually, people moved before they spoke intelligibly.
