It has been a central ingredient in human life ever since with everyone from tribespeople to professional entertainers showcasing their talents. It's celebrated on 29th April because it's the birthday of Jean-Georges Noverre (1727-1810), the creator of modern ballet ๐ The average person will dance for nearly 315 hours in their lifetime!
