What prevents a professional dancer from developing an academic attitude?
An academic attitude involves longer years of study,deeper understanding of the subject and facing an exam. The process of getting degrees is time consuming. In the new socio-economic order dance has to be a commercial venture. The absence of patronage makes dancers fend for themselves. Thus most try to become professional performers or teachers within the shortest possible time with very little investment. Developing an academic attitude in such a situation naturally becomes a last priority. Dance has been reduced to a movement of ill-conceived rhythms due to lack of understanding. Has there been any attempt to set right this imbalance?
