All around the world, people move to music at parties and festivals.

What do we call moving your body in time with music?

Dancing
Dancing is moving your body to a beat, and every culture has its own special dances. Some are so old they have been passed down for hundreds of years!

Dancing is moving your body in time with music, whether that means following a steady beat, matching a rhythm, or expressing how the music makes you feel. Every culture around the world has developed its own styles of dance for parties, festivals, and celebrations.

Sleeping and cooking are everyday activities that have nothing to do with moving your body to a musical beat, so neither one describes what people are doing when they move together at a party or festival.

Some traditional dances have been passed down through families and communities for hundreds of years, with specific steps and meanings that connect dancers today to generations who came long before them.
