Dance is a Sport!

What is a sport? A sport is a pysical activity requiring exertion and skill in which you compete with others. Some well known sports are soccer, basketball, tennis, cricket, football and so forth. Some children are a part of multiple sports teams growing up. They practice with their team and then they compete against other teams to win.

Dance is defined as an art form in which you move along with the music following a rythm. For many years people believed dance wasn't good enough to qualify as a sport. Today I'm going to give you my opinion on why dance is a sport, and what makes it unique.

Many people feel dance doesn't qualify as a sport because some forms focus more on the artistic aspect. However, as a dancer you need certain qualities which any athlete would need.

You need to have stamina, energy, skills, and and understanding of it in order to perform well.

Although dance compares to other sports and is less rigorous than others, there is still physical exertion in it.

However, not all dance teams compete, but that doesn't make them less.

One thing that is unique about all dance forms is that they all are a form of art and expressing yourself!
