Folk dance enhances the ability of a culture or tradition to pass on from generation to generation. It is never ending. In this world, approximately, 98% of the people move on in their lives according to their traditions given by their ancestors.

There are many uses of folk dance. When we participate in folk dance, we are commemorating the lives and beliefs of our ancestors. We also develop cultural and social skills by ourselves automatically and that will be the main reason for society will be respecting you. We also co-operate with our cousins or friends or with whom we have folk dance.

Nowadays, many people don't believe or realize the beauty of folk dance. Due to the emergence of new styles in dances, many people and even young candidates think that "folk dance is a disastrous thing", but NO. Due to this folk dance, people began to realize that it's not better, therefore they invented new styles of dance.

If there wasn't folk dance, people won't be cooperating with each other and won't have understood that a change was needed in its improvement.

Thank You

Answer:

folk dance is a dance developed by people that reflect the life of the people of a certain country or region. ... The terms "ethnic" and "traditional" are used when it is required to emphasize the cultural roots of the dance. In this sense, nearly all folk dances are ethnic ones.
