Modern dance is not the same thing as ballet. Not all dance outside of traditional cultural dances are ballet. Modern dance technique derives certain elements from balletic dance technique, but that does not make it ballet. If you were to watch the most recent dance that I choreographed you could easily at points find balletic dance movement within it, but the dance is far from being ballet. Instead it is modern/post-modern.

Ballet is a style and form of dance. You wouldn't call Jazz ballet? The characteristics of a form of dance is what makes it a style. Jazz. Ballet. Hip Hop. MODERN.

Which is the reason that Martha graham is seen as one of the mothers of modern dance.

[Devin Klein]

Martha Graham was a link between ballet and modern. For example, 100% ballet would be the swan lake. groups like the ballet russe came after that (sacre de printemps etc.) dancers like Martha Graham came after the ballet russe which would then follow in the "full fledged" modern dance we see today.
