George Sampson made headlines in Britain, Jabbawockeez made the papers, Alesha Dixon made the papers. It seems that dancing news is becoming more of a staple these days and it’s not unusual for it to be a headline story every once in a while.

To be fair it usually coincides with some sort of talent contest but still it’s good that it’s enjoying a heightened profile again. One upon a time the likes of Fred Astaire were superstars. Now dancers may not be superstars but their profile is rising once again.

I guess it was kind of inevitable that hip hop dancers like the Jabbawockeez and Kenny Wormald are partly responsible for this revival seeing as hip hop music is the thing at the moment. So expect more dance news around the corner while it’s popular again.
