Dance As An Art And How It Can Be Improved In Nigeria by amehstanley1(m): 6:01pm On Jan 30, 2023 |
DANCE AS AN ART AND HOW IT CAN BE IMPROVED IN NIGERIA Dance as a branch of performing art is a natural form of self-expression, a means of expressing inner feeling, experience, and thought. It has its technic, vocabulary, genres, content, and branches, which must be understood and applied to be eloquent in the art. Dance as a fulfilled classification of learning can be exploited not as a goal in itself but as a tool in formal and non-formal education, for advancing individual mindset and group problem-solving skills, connecting movement activities to academic themes, and enhancing practitioners to attract young people's deep-rooted intelligence. Dance as art in Nigeria has been taken for granted as an inborn ability that defines a race, generation, community, and its inhabitant. Dance and dancers in Nigeria are yet to achieve measurable standard awareness, government and institutionalized gazetting as well as its performative art equivalent (music and drama). Nevertheless the challenge of dance not being recognized has never stopped so many people from engaging in it. Going around the countries, Nigeria and so many other African continents have made this performing art(Dance) a daily routine in their activities, checking around Nigeria state mostly in Lagos, has made it so possible to bring in more technics, more skills, more dance steps, which brings in the vibes, the energy that expresses the emotion of one's inner thought, passing a message across its viewers. Lately, presently in Lagos, there isn't any music being played that doesn't have a dance step, both the Hip-pop, High life, Gospel, afro-juju, Afrobeat, Jazz, Highlife, and Reggae, all of it has their amazing dance steps. The type of dance steps which are taken over in the music industries, which the youth, children, and parents are so fascinated about, are: 1. Happy feet 2. Legwork 3. Buga 4. Galala 5. Alanta6. Buga 7. Azonto 8. Etighi (kukere) 9. Skelewu 10. Shoki 11. Sekem 12. Shakiti bobo 13. Shaku shaku 14. Zanku (legbegbe) 15. Alingo 16. Alikiadu 17. Makosa 18. Gwara gwara and many more. All these listed are some of the dance steps in Lagos, Nigeria, which is pulling and motivating people around even in the outside countries, due to that even with the challenges circulating performing art (Dance). Musicians, from other countries, are coming down to Nigeria (Lagos) to collaborate with a legend (musician) here in this state, just to practice our dance steps, collaborating and bringing new ones in other to make their music videos very standard and attractive, drawing more viewers and mostly dancer to participate in their videos and also encouraging learners (beginner) to learn faster.
