As for the performance dances, you have to learn and practice and work hard and long in most cases and this takes time, effort and dedication.

Even if you are not very good it does not really matter in the main.
It is not possible to say when dance became part of human culture, but dance is probably the most ancient of the arts and the oldest means of expression, reflecting the need of humans to express emotion and need, by using the most immediate instrument available, the body.

Astronomical events made a deep impression on ancient man and movements of the heavenly bodies were imitated through circle dances and there are many and various rituals amongst the cultures of the world, present and past, where dance is an important element in the life and well being of the community, with love work and ritual all finding expression through dance. Many important events, such as births, marriages and death were celebrated and mourned with dancing and humans would dance for the heavens to send rain and would dance in bliss when these dancing prayers were answered.
Dance has certainly been an important part of ceremony, rituals, celebrations and entertainment since the earliest human civilisations. Archeology delivers traces of dance from the prehistoric era such as the 9,000 year old Rock Shelters of Bhimbetka paintings in India and Egyptian tomb paintings depicting dancing figures from c. 3300 BC. One of the earliest structured uses of dances may have been in the performance and in the telling of myths.
