Learn fitness & dance through the learnning friendly technology of DVDs. Dance is a symbol of joy for all of us; the universal movement of grace and rythem transcends cultural differences. Dance elements can be found in a number of sports. Such as gymnastics, figure skating, synchronized swimming, and are often seamlessly blended with other types of art and sports, such as pantomime or gymnastics.

Some cultures have extremely complex and elaborate forms of art, e.g., Indian classical dance forms like Odissi, Bharatanatyam, Kathakali, that include "Nritta" (dance elements proper) as its part.

Although dance movement is often rhythmic, it is not always so. It usually requires the rhythm of music, even if only imaginary, or produced by the dancers themselves.

In some dance styles, the dancers produce music by stomping, clapping, ringing the bells attached to body or garments, or by tapping metal plates attached to the bottom of their shoes.

Many folk and ethnic dances use steps and movements that imitate important everyday activities: agricultural, fishing, hunting, etc. However the purpose of a harvesting dance for example is not harvesting, rather, it's a tale about harvesting or something similar. Some Indian dance styles use hand, face and eye movements to communicate meaning by the dancer.
