I
like to watch the dance show “So You Think You Can Dance,” and
the people running that show are always talking about National Dance
Day. There are all sorts of events and contests on this day—well,
“all sorts” but all about dance, of course!
Some
of the events are associated with an organization called Dizzy Feet Foundation; check to see if there is an event near you!

Today
is also Walk on Stilts Day!
Some
people have needed to walk in stilts for their daily life, because
they lived in low-lying, wet terrain. This was true in the 1800s in
part of France. These days, acrobats and clowns and other performers
use stilts in parades, circuses, and other shows.
I
tried a quick search of where you can learn to walk on stilts, and I
gotta tell you, I think dancing is a little easier to try out!
