Where is dancing popular?

i have been dancing for 13 years and it is definitely NOT the easiest sport! i play Field Hockey and run track, and i do not find those sports as difficult as dance. Dance takes years of training to build up technique, especially Ballet - the core of all types of dance. for ballerinas, going on pointe (trust me, i know from years of experience) is incredibly difficult. but on the other hand, that's what i like about dance - it challenges you yet looks so graceful and elegant. so basically, i would say dance is one of the hardest sports rather than the easiest sport
