    Formation and Position


    There are distinctive meanings
    in dances that are needed to
    be conveyed for others to
    understand.
    The musical composition
    determines the dance composition.
    Music is essential to dance because
    it adds flavor to the dance itself.
    Even if dance can be performed
    without music, it is more likely to be
    presented beautifully with music.
    In dancing, transitions are essential; this is
    what we call change of formations and
    positions. It is generally known that
    changing of formation adds beauty to the
    dance because when we are dancing,
    we are performing it in front of the
    audience. Definitely, if there are no
    changes in the formation, the audience
    will find it boring to watch.
