===Dance=== {{main|Dance}} [[File:Chopiniana Baku.jpg|thumb|Scene from the ballet {{lang|fr|[[Les Sylphides]]}}]] In the context of performing arts, dance generally refers to human [[Motion (physics)|movement]], typically rhythmic and to music, used as a form of audience entertainment in a performance setting. Definitions of what constitutes dance are dependent on [[Society|social]], [[Culture|cultural]], [[aesthetic]], [[artistic]], and moral constraints and range from functional movement (such as [[folk dance]]) to codified, virtuoso techniques such as [[ballet]].<ref name="mackrell">{{cite web|last1=Mackrell|first1=Judith|title=Dance|url=https://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/150714/dance|website=Encyclopædia Britannica|access-date=11 March 2015|archive-date=24 March 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150324131003/http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/150714/dance|url-status=live}}</ref> There is one another modern form of dance that emerged in 19th- 20th century with the name of [[free dance]] style. This form of dance was structured to create a harmonious personality which included features such as physical and spiritual freedom. [[Isadora Duncan]] was the first female dancer who argued about "woman of future" and developed novel vector of choreography using [[Nietzsche]]'s idea of "supreme mind in free mind".<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Nana |first1=Loria |title=Philosophical Context of Contemporary Choreographic Space |journal=GESJ: Musicology and Cultural Science |date=30 June 2015 |volume=11 |issue=1 |pages=64–67 |url=http://gesj.internet-academy.org.ge/download.php?id=2599.pdf |access-date=3 January 2023 |archive-date=3 January 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230103132354/http://gesj.internet-academy.org.ge/download.php?id=2599.pdf |url-status=live }}</ref> Dance is a powerful impulse, but the art of dance is that impulse channeled by skillful performers into something that becomes intensely expressive and that may delight spectators who feel no wish to dance themselves. These two concepts of the art of dance—dance as a powerful impulse and dance as a skillfully choreographed art practiced largely by a professional few—are the two most important connecting ideas running through any consideration of the subject. In dance, the connection between the two concepts is stronger than in some other arts, and neither can exist without the other.<ref name="mackrell" /> [[Choreography]] is the art of making dances, and the person who practices this art is called a choreographer.
