It is considered to be a dance with certain demonstration significance and classical style characteristics. Many countries and nations in the world have their own unique styles of classical dance. European classical dance generally refers to ballet. Folk dance: it is a dance form created, accumulated and developed by the broad masses in the long historical process and widely circulated among the masses. It directly reflects people's thoughts, feelings, ideals and aspirations. Due to the differences in people's life and work style, historical and cultural mentality, customs and natural environment in different countries, nationalities and regions, different national styles and local characteristics have been formed. Modern dance: it is a dance genre that rose in Europe and America at the end of the 9th century and the beginning of the 20th century.

Ballet: It is a highly stylized theater dance, refined and processed by professional dancers in the court.

Group dance, any dance with more than four people can be called group dance. Generally speaking, it is to express a general complex or to shape the image of the group. Through the change and transformation of dance formation and pictures, as well as the development of dance movements, postures and shapes with different speeds, strengths and amplitudes, a profound poetic artistic conception is created, which has strong artistic appeal. Group dance is a relatively large dance work composed of several dances. Each dance is relatively independent, but it is unified in the same theme and complete artistic conception. Song and dance is a form of artistic performance that combines singing and dancing. It is characterized by being good at singing and dancing, being good at both lyricism and narration, and being able to express the complex and delicate thoughts and feelings of the characters and a wide range of life contents. Musical drama is a comprehensive performance form with song and dance as the main artistic expression means to express the drama content.

What age group are they suitable for? Dance can be divided into self-entertainment dance and performance dance according to its purpose and function; According to different styles and characteristics, it can be divided into classical dance, folk dance and modern dance; In addition, there are dance dramas that combine other artistic factors. Self-entertainment dance is a kind of dance that does not take the theater stage as a performance place, does not seek appreciation, and takes dancing as its own entertainment. Its movements are meaningless, simple and regular. The formation changes simply, and the number of people can be increased or decreased at any time. Some are accompanied by musical instruments, while others dance to the rhythm of drums or songs. Dancers can improvise within a certain rhythm and regularity. All ethnic groups in China also have their own traditional dance forms, such as yangko of Han nationality, string dance of Tibetan nationality, Diane dance of Mongolian nationality, swing dance of Tujia nationality, drum music of Miao nationality, ballroom dance and youth group dance, which have enriched the cultural life of the masses. Performance dance: a dance with theater and stage as the main performance places, which is specially for people to watch and has the functions of understanding, education, beauty and entertainment. This kind of dance is created by the artistic processing and arrangement of the dancers, so the theme is distinct, the image is typical, the movements are complex, regular and standardized, and the dancers can't play freely. The performance process is bound to be restricted by certain stage space and time. At the same time, there are also artistic means such as music, dance beauty, lighting and clothing. Classical dance: a traditional dance with typical classical style handed down from ancient times. Many nationalities in the world have their own unique classical dances. For example, the magnificent Irish tap dance and the classical dance in China are mostly kept in the traditional Chinese opera. Every move of a character when singing is dancing in common English, and there are also complete sets of dance combinations. In the performance, the close coordination of hand, eye, body, method and step is the traditional feature of China classical dance. All ethnic groups in the world have unique dance styles, among which folk dance plays an important role. Most of the folk dances in China are combined with folk songs and take the form of singing and dancing, so they are also called singing and dancing. Folk dance has distinctive national style and local characteristics, and is widely spread in the form of folk dance. From people's labor and struggle life. Due to the differences of people's life, customs, working methods and historical and geographical environment in various ethnic groups and regions, the styles and characteristics of dance are also obviously different. In the process of being handed down from generation to generation, it has become a precious national cultural treasure through the continuous processing and creation of the people. Ballet is a general term for European classical dance dramas. The word "ballet" comes from the Italian word "ballet" Ballet art was born out of 15 and 16 th century Italian aristocratic drama performances. It was formed in France in17th century, introduced to Russia in18th century, and developed into an independent and complete art at the beginning of19th century. It created the skills of dancing with the toes of actresses, and developed various skills of jumping and spinning in the air. Now many countries have different styles of classical ballet and famous ballet works. At the beginning of the 20th century, modern ballet schools appeared. Ballet art was introduced to China around the May 4th Movement, and a professional ballet company was established after the founding of New China. Modern dance breaks away from the routine and bondage of classical ballet, and emphasizes the dance of freely expressing feelings and life with natural dance movements. Dance drama takes dance as the main means of expression, integrates music, pantomime, stage art and other factors, and strives to shape characters and express contradictions and conflicts in life. Dance in a dance drama with a complete drama structure is generally based on classical dance or folk dance, which can be divided into plot dance and performance dance according to the character and plot development of the characters in the drama. Plot dance shows stories and characters. Performance dance mainly describes the characteristics of the times and the environment of the plot development. Dance has great artistic charm in revealing people's hearts and expressing inner feelings. "Preface to Mao Poetry" said: "Emotion moves in the middle and is in words, but words are insufficient, so mourn it, mourn it, chant it, chant it and dance without knowing it." This shows that people can't help but express their feelings by dancing only when they are very excited and their inner feelings are difficult to fully express in words. Dance is that people use this special form to express their feelings, which constitutes its unique artistic expression. Its way of expressing feelings is the combination of mind and matter, which leads to body movement with emotion and conveys feelings with body movement, giving people a vivid and intuitive image. Appreciating dance is not only a cultural aesthetic activity, but also a spiritual activity. In terms of appreciation methods, we can first understand the content, theme, form and actors of the dance works through the program and explanations, and then further understand and appreciate the content and significance expressed by the works in combination with the atmosphere and scenes expressed by the actors in the performance, so as to achieve the unity of form (the actors' actions), meaning (the scenery and significance expressed by the actions) and emotion (the feelings expressed). Secondly, we should learn and understand the basic characteristics of dance art, which is a combination of literature, music, art and other artistic factors to shape the artistic image. Having a certain knowledge of dance will be beneficial to appreciate dance works. Besides, we should learn to understand music. Dance music and dance are closely linked. Clear and accurate musical images, beautiful and moving melodies and varied textures will better guide us to deeply understand and appreciate dance works.
