	group dance (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Group dances are danced by groups of people simultaneously, as opposed to individuals dancing alone or individually, and as opposed to couples dancing together but independently of others dancing at the same time, if any.
		Alternatively, various groups within the larger group may be dancing different, but complementary, parts of the larger dance.
		An exception to this generalization must be pointed out where groups of individuals are dancing independently of each other, but with the purpose of creating a "group" feeling or experience, such as might accompany various forms of ritual dancing.
