International Dance Day makes a good excuse to dance your pants off.
April 29 is the birthdate of Jean-Georges Noverre (1727-1810), a distinguished French dancer, choreographer and ballet master who was known as "the Shakespeare of dance."
In 1982, UNESCO declared that day an occasion to annually honour the terpsichorean arts.
Dance Umbrella of Ontario is jumping the gun on Tuesday's IDD with a celebration in Yonge-Dundas Square on Sunday from 1 to 5 p.m.
Anyone who want to exorcise their inner Michael Jackson can take Thriller dance lessons onstage at the square. The HUBS will perform and give classes and a b-boy dance-off will clear the decks.
On Tuesday, watch for Dance Ontario Youth Board dancers prancing about at Pearson International's Terminal 1 in the arrivals area.
At Bloorview children's rehab centre, AKA Dance, Keiko & Company and artists from the Toronto Chinese Dance Group will perform for kids confined in the hospital.
Meagan O'Shea captures the spirit of International Dance Day with Dance Like No One Is Watching: a silent uprising on Tuesday at noon hour and after work.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, The G Series will include music crafted by Snoop for film, TV and commercial projects that are connected with Extreme Music.

The first installment of The G Series is expected to hit shelves this fall.
