Santa Cruz, representin' - Wish it was a little more regular, but I still dig it.

Dance in a non-dancer's life is often spontaneous, often blurps of energy or simply a joke. It's (almost) never about months of planning and rehearsal. The same could be said for music, so I'm not saying that dance can ONLY be performed as it is seen in everyday life. All I'm saying is that the performance of dance around the world should include much of that kind of dancing, slightly formalized by trained dancers. Maybe, just maybe, that would be a much easier type of dance for the everyday person to relate to.
