Dance
Dancing, the movement of the body to music, is something that transcends ethnicity or culture. Every world culture has some form of dance in its history. Dance is something that comes naturally to humans and if you play music for young kids they will naturally move to the music without needing to be taught.
Dancing can recreation, social activity, spiritual ritual or entertainment. Sociologists regard dance as a form of human communication. Dancing has evolved into hundreds of styles and traditions from Ancient Egyptian rain dances to Break Dancing, from Ballroom Dancing to Moshing. Dancing continues to evolve and will always be one of the fun and interesting parts of human culture.
