Thank you very much!

lyrical because it can show your emotions and although some may consider it more contemporary, a lot of lyrical is really graceful

Salsa....

The Tango is very expressive and if done right can be very beautiful

or try Swing Dancing.

Salsa............

Capoeira from brazil in my opinion.(completly biased since I am from brazil.)

I saw the most wonderful Tango dancers in Buenos Aires. That would take a lot to beat.

The Horizontal Bop

it is very difficult to watch the dancing of the shangaan ( tribe who live on the southern banks of the zambezi near livingstone) without knowing exactly what the dancer feels - even if you have never seen this kind of dancing before.

when i first saw central african dancing it seemed to me that every western dance style i had ever met with was just trivial.

i am told that people who have seen nautch dancing in north india have similar feelings about it. but i have never been to northern india.

Lyrical dance can be both expressive and graceful.

lyrical or modern

indian classical dancing, these type of dancers can move extremely fast, while swaying gracefully. Indian classical dancers are taught from the age of three to constantly spin non-stop fifty times but with a graceful look. They literally move at every second of instrumental songs. It resembles ballet a lot actually, in a strange way, although there are differences.

Lyrical because it can incorporate themes from many forms of dance

Danse Oriental ( belly dance)

Classical Indian Bharatanatyam.

I'd say modern
