<!-- PLEASE NOTE: Notation systems should be given correct capitalization according to the title. E.g. 'Eshkol-Wachman Movement Notation' is the full name, not 'Eshkol-Wachman' or 'Eshkol-Wachman movement notation', and 'Action Stroke Dance Notation', not 'Action stroke dance notation'. Examine the external links of each system for reference if you are unsure.

'''Dance notation''' is the [[symbol]]ic representation of human [[dance]] movement and form, using methods such as graphic symbols and figures, path mapping, [[Numeral system|numerical system]]s, and letter and word [[Writing systems|notations]]. Several dance notation systems have been invented, many of which are designed to document specific types of dance while others have been developed with capturing the broader spectrum of human movement potential. A ''dance score'' is a recorded dance notation that describes a particular dance.
