Dance

Dance (from Old French dancier, perhaps from Old Frankish language) generally refers to Human Motion movement either used as a form of Expression or presented in a Social, Spirituality or Performance setting.

Dance is also used to describe methods of Non-verbal communication (see Body language) between humans or “Animal” (Dance_language bee dance, mating dance), Motion in inanimate objects (the Leaves danced in the Wind), and certain Dance forms or Music genres.

Definitions of what constitutes dance are dependent on Society, Culture, Aesthetic, Artistic and Moral constraints and range from functional movement (such as Folk dance) to codified, Virtuoso virtuoso techniques such as Ballet.
