Ballet is a formalized form of dance with its origins in the Italian Renaissance courts of the 15th and 16th centuries.Ballet spread from Italy to France with the help of Catherine de' Medici, where ballet developed even further under her aristocratic influence.he word ballet comes from French and was borrowed into English around the 17th century. The French word in turn has its origins in Italian balletto, a diminutive of ballo (dance).
The ballet first appeared in Italian courts in the 16th cent., and it became popular in France, especially during the reign of Louis XIV. Among the formal dances of the 17th cent. were the courante, saraband, pavan, minuet, gavotte, quadrille (or contredanse), and cotillion.Music, which had developed to accompany dancing, had, by this time, evolved many forms and rhythms no longer associated with the dance.ancing as a social activity and a form of entertainment is of relatively recent origin. During the Middle Ages, especially in France, dancing was a feature of the more enlightened and convivial courts. Some medieval dances, such as the volta, precursor of the waltz, became the sources of modern dance steps.
