Ashford Campbell blew away the X Factor Judges with his rendition of "Senorita" by Justin Timberlake and the superb dance moves that he coupled with it.
While his singing prowess was not rated that highly, it was the dance moves of the teenager that catapulted him into the limelight. His elder brother, premiership soccer star, said that his brother had got the X Factor – and said that he taught him all the dance moves. The student from Huddersfield was barely in the venue for two minutes and was already chatting up and busting some dance moves for host Caroline.
The 19 year old received a unanimous "Green Signal" from the judges, all impressed by his combination of old school singing and funky dance moves.

Ballet classes are a great form of dance instruction for toddlers, as they can teach balance, posture and even good manners. Ballet classes usually start from 18 months to 2 years and up, though certain schools do offer age specific courses for younger children. For toddlers classes are usually graded according to age rather than ability. These classes are often advertised as "baby ballet", and they are designed to be fun and educational.

The classes will usually include basic ballet techniques, dance, child yoga, music and singing, baby gym and storytelling. There is usually classical ballet music plus a variety of other music involved as well. Classes usually begin with a gentle warm-up to get the kids moving and stretching before the main class, in which ballet basics will be taught in a fun and accessible way for young children.

Some learn dancing to impress the opposite sex; others learn dancing to make their lives more exciting. But irrespective their reasons to learn dancing, their bodies benefit a lot from all the dancing. Dance demands a lot of flexibility from the dancer, and so dancers have great agility and suppleness. Also, when you learn dancing, you realize that all those leaping moves require a lot of strength, and dancing makes your muscles strong and hard.
But dancing is not just about strength and agility: you also need staying power. People who learn dancing soon realize that they need lots of stamina to dance for hours. And at the end of the day, like any other intense exercise, dance makes your body feel vital, and it gives you a sense of well-being.
