Dance is a art form consisting of selected human body movements relating to rhythm and expression. The elements and subsequent benefits are similar to other human body movements found in sports.
Unlike many other sport performances it is noteworthy observing the male seat selection process at childrens' dance recitals versus the NFL game. The prize spectator viewing location at the Bears-Packers game appears to be near the 50-yard line. Walk into any dance recital auditorium where hundreds of young girls are preparing to perform for 31/2 hours and you will notice ever aisle seat is occupied by a male.
As the dance recital performers do their thing there is energetic applause. At the completion of each dance the auditorium lights go dark. When those lights come back on you will observe a few aisle seats are vacated. This subtraction of male bodies from aisle seats continues throughout the dance performances until only a couple of Dads remain in the auditorium for the last dance performance.
Of course all Dads re-appear in the lobby where they oblige smiling mommies who wish to take pictures of little dancers holding huge flower bouquets. A very interesting 'folkways' phenomenon.
