So, is this thing called dancing an art or a sport?
For many, it is a very valid question. Let me give you my take on this.
It is an art. Why? Because it is a form of expressing oneself. A story can be told by mere movements and facial expressions. A dancer can take on an entirely different personality while performing.
On the other hand, it clearly is a sport as well. As with any other sport, there are physical requirements that need to be met. You have to be strong and flexible. More importantly, you have to work hard and be passionate about it. Let's not forget that mastering techniques and memorizing choreography require mental toughness, too.
For as long as your heart is in it, who cares what it actually is, right?
