- Dance the Night away: Dancing Logo Styles

There are so many reality shows about dancing now. We have “Dancing with the stars”, “So you think you can dance”, “America’s best dance crew” and “Dance you a$$ off.” Even “American Idol” has dance sessions. Obviously, there is a bit of a dance craze going on in the television world right now and because of this inspiration, everyone wants to learn to dance. This puts a lot of pressure on professional performers because just singing at a concert isn’t enough, there must be visual attraction and lots of dancing. I guess that’s a good thing though, because if I am spending 80 plus dollars to see a show, i would expect to be entertained!
A silhouette of a ballet dancer is a very common design style for dance studios. You can see in the rest of the logos how this design approach, or some sort of variation, is used quite often. The Dance Umbrella logo stands out a bit more since they incorporate the umbrella cleverly into their design.
This design was a bit odd to me since there seemed to be so many design ideas to go with a name like “Prism Dancers.” I don’t think they used the name to its full potential. I would assume that a rainbow of colors would be involved in this. Frankly, the design is a bit dull and incredibly disappointing.
Footlights is a mix of dance and theater, therefore their design is a bit different from the overdone ballet dancer look. They did a nice job utilizing the drama masks and spotlight. It really sets them apart from the others.
I don’t think that many people can flex their body like the above logo, but it’s a great advertising tool because that silhouette makes me want to learn how.
Hopefully business has picked up for these dance studios with the dance craze at its peak. Everyone wants to learn how to dance with the stars or get in better shape through fitness dancing. It is a more interesting trend that will hopefully stick as time goes on and the reality shows get cancelled.
