There are many forms of dance and they all differ from nation to nation. In some cultures for example people dress up in costumes, paint different objects on their body, etc. Attending the Sacramento State S/Bad concert I was introduced to a unique form of dancing, something I wouldn’t normally go to see. It got me very interested and I saw how much effort and power it takes to perform a successful dance concert. Dance is a beautiful form of art; it provides people with the ability to think more openly and clearly.
