She uses pathos, logos, and ethos while challenging this statement. Pathos is used while discussing the purpose of dance, the opportunities dancers have been given, and the competitive side of dance. James uses Logos as she writes about the strategies dancers use in order to succeed as a dancer, she also states the true definition of an athlete, which qualifies dancers as athletes, and also while discussing how dancers prevent or obtain injuries. Ethos is used in this article when James references the TV series on FOX known as So You Think You Can Dance, and also giving credibility to dancers for fighting to make dance a sport. James addresses the emotional appeal, also known as Pathos, multiple times in this article.

I won a medal in floor and this first got me going with competition. This all started my love for sports. When I went to elementary school I started doing dance since in some ways it was like gymnastics. It was run by the school and it was once a week. I started out in ballet then the next 2 years did ballet and tap, in 4th and 5th grade I did jazz and tap and my last year I did hip hop.
When thinking of comparing two things, I was having a hard time deciding on what I should discuss but it then dawned on me, I should write about something that was an enormous part of my life.

I was the one and only three year old in the dance company. When my dance teacher informed me that she would soon be offering tap dance, I could not help but feel the need to participate.

A popular one would be Anna’s school at her house in California on her deck. Another school I think was interesting and important to the dance culture was the multi racial school she made. Which was the first multi racial in the U.S. and it was during a time when the United States still had racism.
