What is a "glide"?
In dance, a glide is a smooth and continuous movement where the dancer appears to move effortlessly across the floor, often with minimal foot contact. The glide involves shifting weight from one foot to the other while maintaining a smooth, flowing motion. This technique is used to create an illusion of floating or sliding, and it is common in styles like hip-hop and contemporary dance. The glide requires balance and control to execute properly and to enhance the overall gracefulness of the dance performance.
