The famous French dancer Jean-Georges Noverre was born in 1727. The balletmaster is now considered the creator of ballet d'action, which served as a precursor to the narrative ballets of the 19th century. His birthday, 29 April, is celebrated as International Dance Day globally. 

Social media app Snapchat is offering patrons a fun way to celebrate the occasion, but in a socially distanced way. You can share some groovy moments using Bitmojis stickers on Snapchat or play with a range of Lenses made by the global Snapchat community. Simply search for ‘dancing’ on Snapchat to see Lenses that transform you into a dancing bunny, turkey or squirrel or of course the very popular Dancing Hotdog Lens. Whether you are an ace dancer or a newbie, it’s always fun to do things together. 
So stand up and put your hands up in the air, or challenge yourself to a handstand, put on a costume on or mix some fun props just like your Bitmojis avatars and make the most of your time at home.
