If people didn’t know the dance's they were unable to attend. That made the dance master's happy because it kept them in business choreographing and teaching dances.

In 1750 when the waltz was born the masters did not approve because they they were putting the more difficult dances aside for the more simple waltz. It did not require lengthy instructions from the masters and was easy to grasp. They were not only losing their dance they used to be chaperons for the dances and society events calling out the dance patterns and formation but now couples were dancing on there own in no formation.

Media can make dances better and add cool sounds or some dances use a projector and do some sort of shadow dance but add different pictures.

Dance can communicate social justice because some dances were very hard to learn and poor people could not go and get taught how to do the dance so they could not attend social gatherings aswell.
