1. Is the article's content relevant to the topic? 2. Is there content that is missing or content that does not belong? 3. Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented? 4. Is the article well-organized - i.e. broken down into sections that reflect the major points of the topic? 5. How can the article be improved?

1. Yes, the articles content is relevant to the topic, but a lot more details can be added. I feel this is a topic that can involve a lot of research from different stand points, and eventually all accumulate together. 2.I don't believe any information in the content does not belong, but there are a few things that drift away from Cuba and go into dance styles in other areas, but in some way relate to dance, traditions, and styles. 3.A view point that is underrepresented is the dance styles in general. They list some and that what cultures have them, but the history was never inputted, where it came from, was it made up, does everyone call it the same thing. What was over represented was the dance styles as individuals, there's a lot about each specific once, but not as the cultural as a whole, and specifically Cuba. 4. Yes, it is well organized and broken into sections of each dance, but I think adding a section for the cultures, differences, and the history of how the people originated it, would make it a lot better. 5. As I previously stated, the article can be improved in many ways. Adding more detail and content to the individual styles, adding history behind the cultural and how the people who learned/do the dances are involved and how they became involved, also adding in other cultures and how they relate to one another and using their traditional dance styles.

Draft: Ballet is one of the most popular and well-focused areas of dance in Cuba. Ballet shows are performed at the cabaret, which is where people go and watch the shows, while surrounding the stage enjoying food and beverages. Cabarets are very well known especially when a ballet show will be performing, although the more advanced ballet shows are performed at major theaters such as the Paris opera Ballet. There are different types of ballet, but one of the most recognized and well distinguished is psycho ballet. Psycho ballet is a therapeutic art developed in 1973 by Alicia Alonso. This specific ballet is known to release spiritually satisfaction and enhance self-development. Psycho ballet is taught by a team leader and psychologist in many hospitals, schools and community centers across 17 countries for those who suffer from mental, motor, and several other disabilities. Their goal is to improve and strengthen the individuals sense of personality, growth, and a higher quality of life. Other countries who've experience this type of treatment are developing more research as it continues to guide and heal those who need it. Cuban ballet promoted a post colonial repositioning to the countries dance culture. This was a huge turn around for the dance community because dance is not only for those who have a passion for it, but those who have an interest, but never thought they could. In Cuba everyone knows ballet is a high career and the admission is intense with earning to be more than doctors. Today a government subsidized preprofessional ballet school operates in each of Cuba's fifteen provinces. , this shows the importance of ballet and how much they value the art of it, as well as the institute expanded as a whole.

-This paragraph would be added under the subtitle Ballet, but I would have their starting paragraph, begin after my third sentence.
