Forget the beautiful, classic ballerina; these daunting dance depictions in the form of products, artworks, photography collections and videos are focused on the edgy, snappy and daring side of dance. Twenty-first century dance has taken on new fields that incorporate and surpass the classic categories of jazz, tap and ballet, among others.
Not only does the technology of today greatly extend dancers' abilities, but it also allows for some crazy amazing captures, games and gear. Dance has always been a form of physical expression that many have flocked to, and with the enhanced gadgets that have become available, the campaigns that have been run, and the group gatherings dance has made its way to new heights of enjoyment. The boundary-pushing photography and interactive campaigns have given dance lovers a new movement to pursue.
