Of the past 100 years.

I'm just pretty curious to see what other people think. And it's pretty hard to pick just ten since there are so many styles, so go over if you want to. Ten is just a nice number lol. (Is there anything that influences you? I adore ballet so I'm pretty biased towards ballet dancers myself.)

Mine in no particular order.

  1. Mikhail Baryshnikov
  2. Rudolph Nureyev
  3. Anna Pavlova
  4. Martha Graham
  5. Sammy Davis Junior
  6. Fred Astaire & Ginger Rodgers (imo these two always danced best when together so they both get one spot)
  7. Gregory Hines
  8. Gene Kelly
  9. Eleanor Powell
  10. Jack Cole
  11. Josephine Baker (I really couldn't keep it to ten lol)

I personally avoided using more recent dancers on purpose. (As in, no one who started dancing after 1993). I feel like if they're not remembered for their dancing perhaps they really weren't that great. But had I I would have included Aurélie Dupont and Joaquín Cortés.
