Dances from the Past

What is Dance?
Dance comes from the German word damson, which means “to stretch or “to drag”. It
developed as a natural expression of united feeling and action. Dance is considered the mirror of
the society because it responds to historical and religious events as well as social and political
statements.
Although there have been immense comparative differences in period and culture,
people still dance mainly for four reasons: (a) to please gods; (b) to please others; (c) to
please themselves; and (d) to build community within an ethnic group or social
interaction.
