There is a spirit in dance that speaks all languages. No matter where one may be in the world, no matter how out of place you may be, dance can bring people together far beyond territory lines. Those who feel the rhythm flow through them while they move to the music and release that beautiful energy of life and grace, what is to keep the spark and connection away?

This is a big world, but even so, there are specific things that we all can understand without question, one is the art of dance.

The art of dance is understood everywhere, it speaks only one language that every spirited dancer knows. Competitions, recitals, shows, all types of performances hold all the same power and passion. Through that dozens of different types of dance, they all have a common stand point, a middle ground where all dancers can come together and understand the meaning of it.

There is a reason why dance is found virtually everywhere.

The feeling you get when you dance, when you achieve, when you finally get it down, when you perform in front of a huge audience, something more then ourselves take over. Dancers move to the music, perform the number they practiced for weeks, they're in the zone of dance. When your there, nothing can touch you, nothing can hurt you. It's just the dancers, the music, and the floor. It doesn't mater how many people are watching, or if you maybe made a false move along the way, what matters is you are all connected. Dancers move as one, nothing can destroy the performance for dancers. No one even has to say anything, dancers already know, they feel it in themselves when the walk of stage smiling ear to ear, or not.

Dance has been in our world for as long as there were people here to dance the dances.

The arm movements, the fluid body waves, the turns, the leap the poses, every aspect of dance has a center a core. This is where all dancers from all over the world relate, universally. If one was to put two dancers is a studio from opposite sides of the world, the would in no way be able to converse, but turn the music on and the connection begins. They begin to experiment, observe each others style and technique, they begin to come together in the final masterpiece. They use each others strengths to bring out the best in them both.

No that is something that is entirly possible, dance is a beautiful way to bring people, from all over, together in one incredible understanding.
