Dance and Culture

Art and music is closely linked to the cultural Heritage of a country. As India has got a rich and varied past, our culture is of a peculiar descent. Many saints were born here. Some of them taught spiritual lessons to their disciples. Some became great dancers, and others well known musicians and painters.

The western and European countries have also their culture and tradition. But that is very much different from those of India's.

"Salsa' is a western classical music. When I first watched it, it seemed to me an exact replica of Bollywood cinematic dance. The globalization might have resulted in a fusion of cultures. The swirls, movements and jumps of the dance altogether give picture of a good gymnastic performance. The costumes worn by dancers give nothing but super erotic feeling. In the picture given the lady's boobs are mostly exposed. There is no expression on the dancers face except that poor smile.

Here one thing is to be remembered. In about 50 % of the countries of the world, illicit sex is not prohibited by law. Their enjoyment is mainly sex. So it is quite natural that their dance will also be reflection of that. You may yourselves compare the dances from the videos and reach in your judjement.


This is my opinion. Those who refute are free to do so please!
