* ''Film/WhiteNights'' features the legendary Soviet ballet dancer Mikhail Baryshnikov in his prime, and ''boy'' does it want you to know it. There's also Gregory Hines, who gets to show off his tap skills. Perhaps its most notable sequence involves Baryshnikov performing a pirouette with ''eleven'' revolutions on demand (in street shoes!), then coming to a flawless stop whilst still on relevé before stepping down, in a scene that is so pornographic to ballet nerds that it ought to be X-rated.

Up To Eleven is a defunct trope

Added DiffLines:

So you've got a choreographed dance. You want to describe it as best as you can, but you need to list every last step, every last turn, every last jump, in order to do so. So what do you do? ''You do just that''. And it is absolutely a balletomane's dream come true.

In visual works, expect a lot of closeups, particularly of the arms and feet, and perhaps even some slow-mo. Written works will most often be ''very'' descriptive about the dance being performed, perhaps even down to the last detail.

Can apply to any athletic event that involves a lot of kinesis on the performer's part.

!!Examples:

[[AC:{{Anime}} And {{Manga}}]]
* ''Anime/PrincessTutu'' shows its work with such bravado, its attention to detail has been used to teach dance appreciation classes.

[[AC:{{Film}}]]
* ''Film/BlackSwan'' is an example which notoriously makes at least some use of body doubles.
* ''Film/BringItOn'' shows a lot of cheerleading, to the point where it more or less ''averts'' the Hollywood stereotype.
* ''Film/TheCuttingEdge'' does this to figure skating.
* ''Film/TheKarateKid'' puts on a heavy display of... [[CaptainObvious you know]].
* In ''Film/StayingAlive'' a large percentage of the screen time was of montages of dance rehearsals, as well as the finale Broadway show. All involved heavily choreographed dancing.
* The ''Film/StepUp'' franchise would probably be less than half the length if you took out the dancing scenes. This trope is pretty much the entire reason it exists.
* Creator/FredAstaire loved this trope, to the point where he took it UpToEleven by famously dancing from floor to wall to ceiling in a single take in ''Film/RoyalWedding''.

[[AC: WesternAnimation]]
* Many ''WesternAnimation/{{Jem}}'' "music videos" are heavy on the choreography.
* ''WesternAnimation/BarbieAndTheRockersOutOfThisWorld'' features at least one musical number featuring in-depth choreography.
