In many cases, the elements of acrobatics can occur in this type of dance. The root of this dance is in ballet.

7 Classical Dance Classical dance is sometimes called a ballet. The very name of the ballet refers to the whole spectacle on stage, in this case ballet is referred to the techniques used in the ballet dance on a stage. Classical dance comes from the Renaissance court dances, steps and technique comes mainly from the basse dance, pawany and minuet.
