Why Dance?

The history of dance is probably as long as human existence. It is one of the oldest arts. People have danced for various reasons as part of ceremonies, rituals, celebrations and entertainment as well as just for fun.

Times where dance was only a privilege of youth passed long time ago and nowadays it does not have a limit. Ballroom dancing, which constitutes of Standard and Latin–American Dances, is much more than only a carnival entertainment. We dance at any occasions, every season, at any place. Dance has become a social requirement and it is difficult to live without knowing how to dance.

Rhythm and movement are the ways to achieve the harmony of your body and soul. Dance helps you to understand yourself and your emotions better. Each kind of dance is based on technical rules, steps and combinations.
