Find out about International Dance Day & Dances from around the world with this bright and colourful video for kids!

International Dance Day is held on 29th April every year. The day celebrates not only ballet but all forms of dance. If it's a dance, it's celebrated on International Dance Day!
There are many different types of dance from all over the world. Examples of these include Irish step dance, waltz, tango, flamenco, and ballet. Different dances evolve and spread, so a dance that originates from a place is not exclusive to that place, and some dances are created from adapting or combining elements of other dances. This means there are lots of different types of dance that you can learn.
