Character dance is a specific subdivision of classical dance. It is the stylized representation of a traditional folk or national dance and uses movements and music which have been adapted for professional stage. Character part is big and important part of dance education since almost any classical ballet performance includes character dances. A good example of character dance within ballet is the series of national dances which take place at the beginning of Act II of Swan Lake.

Popular character dance adaptations for ballet also include the national dances of Hungary , Russia, Poland, Italy and Spain: csárdás, mazurka, tarantella, flamenco, etc.
