Rachel searches for dancing tips for her and Jelly Queen

_Elsa_

Back in Candy Town, Rachel contacts Jelly Queen to discuss the type of dance they should do.  

“Hi Jelly Queen, has Tiffi told you that I might be contacting you?” questions Rachel. 

No calls from Tiffi so Rachel tells her that Elsa and Tiffi are making plans for a talent show, like America’s Got Talent. 

“This is going to be Friends’ Got Talent,” Rachel says. “Tiffi wanted to know what type of talent I could offer so, I told her that I like to wiggle and jiggle and then thought of you. I know you love to dance so I volunteered you to dance with me. Red Rabbit has a guitar so Tiffi is going to ask him if he would like to play the guitar while we dance.” 

Jelly Queen doesn’t mind the two of them doing a dance routine. She tells Rachel that they have to get together to co-ordinate the type of dance and begin to practice. Sounds like a plan and they arrange a day and time. Rachel decides that she better do some googling about dance so that she doesn’t come across to Jelly Queen as someone who knows nothing about it. 

‘History of Dance - From the earliest moments of known human history, dance accompanied ancient rituals, spiritual gatherings and social events. As a conduit of trance, spiritual force, pleasure, expression, performance and interaction, dance became infused into our nature from the earliest moments of our existence - from the moment when first African tribes covered themselves in war-paint to the to the spreading of music and dance across all four corners of the world. Without a doubt, dancing remains one of the most expressive forms of communications that we know.

The oldest proof of existence of dancing comes from the 9000-year-old cave paintings that were found in India, which depicts various scenes of hunting, childbirth, religious rites, burials and most importantly, communal drinking and dancing. Since dancing itself cannot leave clearly identifiable archeological artifacts that can be found today, scientist looked for secondary clues, written word, stone carvings, paintings and similar artifacts. Period when dancing became widespread can be traced to the third millennia BC, when Egyptians started using dance as integral parts of their religious ceremonies. Judging by the many tomb paintings that survived the tooth of time, Egyptian priests used musical instruments and dancers to mimic important events - stories of gods and cosmic patterns of moving stars and sun.’ (Info here)

Rachel cannot do much more on Google because she has to see what Jelly Queen plans to do for the show.
