Nice photo, Jens!
Tim is correct in that the foreground is underexposed. IMO, a
polarizer wouldn't help at all. It would make the sky too unnatural
looking. The +1 EV version is better but loses the saturation in the
sky, flattens the colors on the dancers too.
However, a few moments with Photoshop ... a Curves Adjustment Layer
and mask does the trick for me.

I fine moment off boy joy. Sadly it is a bit let down by the fact
that the
guys are a bit too dark IMHO. But a step or two up would have
burned out the
sky. And it is the sky that makes the guys powerful. A polarizer
might have
done the trick. But nobody has a pola on camera when needed ...
My guess is that you have thought all this yourself, before posting
the
picture.
