Is Dance Dying?

So that is my mom, she is an amazing dancer and dance teacher, but it seems to me that her students are carrying out their parents dream of dancing than their own, one mother wanted her kid to learn not for the sake of knowledge, but to show off her daughter in different festivals, another wants her kid to learn because she never could(its never too late), while fusions and spin offs ruin the idea of the art form that is Bharatanatyam, the few expert dancers that do remain try to save the original traditional dying art form. The other day on "so you think you can dance" a Bharatanatyam performance was observed which was just so incorrect and unappealing, the expert choreographer and dancer had their mistakes pointed out by the judge who knew little of the dance form, all that he said was true, but the point is that he knew more about the art form than most Dancers who call themselves experts in the field. We need Quality Control.
