Who are the best dancers in the world?

Who are the best dancers in the world?

  • Answer:

    Some of the problems with trying to answer this question can be explained by Adam Savage's answer to "What are your top three movies?" He explains that anyone who really loves movies, has seen enough films to give a considered response or who works in the industry so has a working knowledge of why seemingly mediocre films are considered revolutionary will have at least ten films vying for the top three. When you consider the different genres of dance (ballet, folk, hip hop, modern, tap) and all the subgenres (ballet= modern, classical, russian/french/danish/etc repertoire) and realise that male and female dancers specialise differently...  this question becomes too difficult to refine even to a top 100 list. Another problem with categorising dancers is the time at which the question is asked. Do we include living dancers, currently performing dancers? As a dancer ages their strengths change and develop. Do we count dancers who were good but are now not so exciting?

I have seen so many and all are so different. Right now, Momix is the best dance troupe I have seen recently. There are athletic dancers, classical dancers, ballet dancers, Indian dancers, African dancers, Balinese dancers, acrobatic dancers, pole dancers, dancers on horses, martial arts dancers, military dancers, step dancers, break dancers, improvisational dancer and on and one. I could never say any are best in the world. I appreciate them all, if they are well practiced and understand their form well, and I can understand their form. But best in the world? I think not. I could never choose. And why should I want to? I love dance, and I love variety and there is no point in trying to choose one for best. Not for me. It makes no sense to me.
