1. My favorite genre of dance would have to be Cumbia. Cumbia is a kind of “street” dance of Colombian origin, similar to salsa. According to the definitions in the book and on the Powerpoint for this chapter I think this genre has a persistent beat of a hand drum and a shaker so it would be best if it was informal because it is encouraged to sings and dance along to this beat. This genre involves a lot of spinning and moves that shake your whole body. Appropriate behavior would be to dance, clap and cheer along the song and dancers. An impropriate behavior would be to simply look bored and unentertained.
2. After reading chapter 4 one example of instant gratification in my life would be self-checkout at stores instead of waiting in line.
