Is history boring to you? Well, then this part of the story won't make you bored at all! After discussing the history of ballet in the previous part, we'll be diving into the ballet's category and styles in the last part of the article today.

Ballet has various categories - story ballets, plotless ballets, and different styles among them - classical, neoclassical, and contemporary.

Story ballets, as you can already have a guess - it tells a story. They possess narrative motion, characters, a beginning, and an ending. The Nutcracker and The Sleeping Beauty are famous story ballets from the 19th century; classic stories and novels such as The Great Gatsby and The Three Musketeers also have been remade into ballets.

Plotless ballets have no storyline. Instead, they employ the movement of the body and theatrical components to interpret music, form an image or express or elicit emotion. Choreographer George Balanchine was a prolific architect of plotless ballets.

We have mentioned three types of style in ballet - classical, neoclassical, and contemporary. Like every other form of art, classical one is what people generally think of first, and it isn't incorrect in ballet either.

Classical ballet acquired its peak in 19th- century Russia through the creation of choreographers like Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov. The following elements characterize this style: graceful, flowing movements classical form: turn-out of the legs and pointe work, balance and symmetry, emphasis on story, elaborate sets, and costumes.

The neoclassical ballet was presented in the 20th century by choreographers like George Balanchine. It generally includes increased speed, energy and attack, manipulation of the classical form, asymmetry, an off-balance feel, non-narrative, often one-act ballets, pared-down aesthetic with simple sets and costumes.

Contemporary ballet is influenced by modern dance. Eminent contemporary ballet choreographers include Twyla Tharp, Jiล™í Kylián, Paul Taylor, William Forsythe, and Dwight Rhoden. In contemporary ballet, you may see: floor work, turn-in of the legs, greater range of movement and body line, pointe shoes but also bare feet.

But what's the point of pointe shoes? Well, until next time!
