Please be exxtremelyyy detailed.
When is it good to have more friction in dance?
less?

how do you make more/less in dance?

what is friction and how does it relate to different types of dance?

The amount of friction you want is going to depend on a few things... How sure are you on your feet? How well balanced/comfortable with your centre of gravity/in control? What kind of dance are you dancing?

Personally, I like less friction. Not NO friction, obviously, but I would much sooner dance on a polished hardwood floor than a sticky dance club floor or a carpet, most of the time. I slide my feet around alot, twist my ankles a lot (up on my toes, in a controlled sort of way). I can't stand being restricted by friction, but I have an excellent centre of gravity, I "stay in the middle", as it were. I could dance on ice effectively and efficiently, I rarely fall down and can recover from seriously close calls (running across icy streets in winter type thing - wooohoooo!)
When swing dancing, I don't find the carpet so bothersome, I can dance in my livingroom just fine.

That's how women get engagement rings. There is a dance where both eye each other, tease each other and then some friction. We dance to your tunes & vice versa.

After friction, we do the dance called marriage. Then we keep on dancing to the game called life. Though when friction lessons
the dance called divorce starts.

In mechanics, friction refers to the force which opposes the relative motion of an object. It is given by the equation: F = MR.
This is kinetic friction, when bodies are in motion (ex. when u are dancing). There is also a static friction, when bodies are not in motion.

F = kinetic friction.
M = coeficient of kinetic friction.
R = normal reaction force acting between the interface and the object.

Without friction, bodies on a dance floor would slip around. M depends on the type of floor you are considering and it is a constant. R depends on other characteristics of the dancers, such as mass.

Depending on the soles of your shoes, you will have more or less friction. Controlling friction will allow you to control movement as well.

When you are dancing try to put on a dancing shoes that has a good friction with the floor so you will not slide. This is good for your safety.

Without friction, you couldn't dance. There would be no way to start or stop motion since you could never have traction between your feet and the floor.

With a simple analogy.

Friction is to dance as air is to humans.

You will have to do a mission to look if the sort of toe pads humans like are regarding the sort of foot they've. Giselle, Greek, or Egyptian. I regularly desired to take a look at whatever like that. Good success along with your mission! :)
