On the moderate intensity of ballroom dancing

Generally, when dancers dance modern dance, they lack the intermediate strength required by the dance, but what they often say about the intermediate strength is just that

I don't know what this means. Take the steps of modern dance as an example. When starting, the waist often "collapses" and "dies"

Can only rely on the strength of the legs to drive the body, the waist did not play a major role in promoting. It's just that when the dance steps start,

Only by using the strength of the waist can we help promote the body. The waist only plays an auxiliary role, not a major role.

When dancing Latin dance, the movements are the same. The movement of the body depends only on the strength of the legs, not on the waist. At the same time,

The twisting of the waist and buttocks is the swinging force of the straight foot. Look at the above situation, the action intensity of modern dance and Latin dance,

The waist never leaves the legs, and the strength of the waist is like a cart, which can't move the lower limbs. This is obviously not what you want in dancing.

The intermediate strength sought can only be called intermediate strength if all physical strength comes from the middle waist. Excellent professional players in the world

Because the internal force of abdomen and waist and abdomen force can be used to lift the lower limbs and reduce the friction with the ground as much as possible,

The use of breathing, to store and then send, in the case of loose waist and buttocks, the body drives the lower limbs to move, mainly waist and buttocks.

Important dynamic roles. When stepping, although the foot touches the ground, the center of gravity foot does not exert force; The strength from the waist is not

It comes from the legs, not the elastic force driven by the back. It drives the body and limbs, which is the real middle part.

Li Duan.

Not only does dance need moderate intensity, but many sports also need moderate intensity, but their expressions are different. Like a basket

When running the basket, the ball hovers left and right in the air, somersaults in gymnastics, diving and acrobatics, big jumps in folk dance and ballet,

These movements are all from the middle waist and abdomen strength, but when doing the movements, the legs are off the ground.

Modern dance correcting hand frame

Basic conditions of

Any movement is inseparable from the principle of geometric mechanics. Without reasonable mechanics, it can't make accurate movements. dance step

In operation, the alternation of two feet is a right triangle, and the alternation to another right triangle is only two legs and knees.

The cover does not have to be vertical. When dancing modern dance, in addition to the vertical body, the straightening of the "skeleton" is the first condition.

; Any dance step and movement can not be separated from the "hand frame", and the dance without a fixed "hand frame" is not the category of modern dance.

Therefore, you must learn to put on airs before learning dance steps.

When we place the "hand frame", we should not only pay attention to its appearance, but also pay attention to its connotation. The life of the older generation

The world champion asked us to pay attention not only to the appearance but also to its mechanical structure when giving lectures in Blackpool (England).

Only by mastering the internal characteristics of its structure can we safely control all parts of the body during exercise, otherwise it is easy to "hold hands"

More or less asymmetric deformation occurs. When it comes to the mechanical structure of the "hand frame", it can be divided into three groups: A, B and C.

Triangle.

A. 1。 The elbow from the top of the head to the left and right hands is an "upper" equilateral triangle.

2. The elbows from the middle waist to the left and right hands are "lower" equilateral triangles.

B.3. Right triangle with "upper left" symmetry from left elbow to top of head and spine.

4. The right elbow to the top of the head and the spine are right-angled triangles with "upper right" symmetry.

C.5. The left elbow to the Dazhui and the middle waist are "lower left" symmetrical right triangle.

6. The right elbow to the Dazhui and the middle waist are right triangles with "lower right" symmetry.

While moving, it is important to keep the external geometry, but it is even more essential to keep the internal mechanical structure.

The combination of inside and outside can make the appearance beautiful and generous, maintain the balance of strength and the stability of posture. If you change

Change the mechanical structure, it will destroy the coordination, it will be inadequate.

The stability of the hand frame can not be separated from the support of muscle strength, but in moving gait, it depends on muscle support first.

Will be made into different degrees of stiffness, therefore, it is necessary to melt into the mind and let the inner qi run through the whole body, so that it will not be caused by

"Fixes" one muscle of the body while affecting the work of other muscles. Through the spine from the top of your head in a mental way.

Connect and gently lift your elbow, just like the steel cable of Shanghai Pudong Bridge, because there is a reaction on your head.

The head and neck can stand upright naturally, not stiff, and the arms of the "hand frame" can be relaxed properly. In addition,

Elbows are connected through the spine, so that the middle waist can be pulled up, and it is not necessary to make the waist stand up in order to lengthen the body.

The waist is tight, so that under the interconnection, it can be connected in one breath.

Steps and movements, but also pay attention to the strength from the waist and spine, only the legs drive the body to move, will more or less destroy the level.

Balance, although the appearance of the hand frame may not be deformed, but the center of gravity of the body can not be vertical, left and right can not be symmetrical, the most

The obvious performance is that the triangle under the elbow is deformed, so pay attention to the body's impartiality when exerting force, and the force comes from the ridge.

Hair, so as to ensure the integrity and rationality of mechanical structure.

Talking about weightlifting skills

Correct lifting action can increase spicy feeling and expressive force, so it has more competitive advantage.

Seriously study the lifting dance technique and give full play to the artistic potential of this skill element, which will make you get the greatest benefit from it.

Income.

What exactly is [Rise &; Fall) technique, I personally prefer to use [lower] to describe the standard dance technique.

Well-controlled descending movement is one of the more artistic elements in dance skills. Show up and down through skills,

It can enhance posture, expressiveness and elegance, and add its own characteristics to dance. Later, I improved my skills because there was no

For the same purpose, several changes have gradually developed. Every dance that swings the body, the expression of basic lifting patterns and characteristics is also the same.

Each is different.

The 3/4 beat waltz is an arc swing based on a bar of music, similar to a pendulum motion.

The generated contour lines are similar.

If rotation (or linear motion) is not used, the basic lifting motion is arc swinging motion. 4/4 foxtrot

The typical aesthetic feeling of dance can also be improved by the lift action, which is based on the unified wave action and is the characteristic of foxtrot.

Color, that is, the dance steps have two beats at the peak and two beats at the trough. Lightness of movement is the basic focus, and you must avoid shoes when you retreat.

Drag one's heavy steps.

The quickstep is also a kind of dance with 4/4 beats. Most of the dance steps are foxtrot-style movements, but some basic movements are like four.

Right-angle turn, gradual chassis and lock step are based on

Based on the waltz dance step, that is, it starts to rise at the end of the first beat, continues to the second and third beats, and reaches the fourth beat.

Stay at the height of the third beat.

It must be noted that the fourth beat of the above dance steps must be the "complete" final step (Clo) when the ascending action is maximum.

Sing a step)

Or the beat after the locking step.

How can the lifting action reach the maximum height at the most correct moment? Dancers who have received this kind of training will be the most attractive.

Pay attention to the review of experience. Unfortunately, most dancers fall too early, that is, they start immediately after the end step or lock step comes out.

Do the descending steps. Moreover, many dancers seem to be unable to control their descending steps, so they look like "falling down".

Tango didn't rise, both technically and historically! A dancer's body must be as long as other dances.

Stretch, but the knees must be relaxed more obviously. Tango is different from other standard dances in this respect because

Because it is led by the heel.

Based on the principle of walking, its weight must be concentrated between its feet at every step, so it is not.

There is the movement of body swing, but the basic principle of lift is that it must be based on swing, so no matter the general dance movement,

Sports dance or Argentine tango is a flat dance. At every step, both feet must

Put pressure on the floor.

Text description of lifting technology: Many books have different definitions of lifting technology. In A 1eX Moore's book, it says "up and down".

Stretch your body upward and lift your leg muscles.

The latest standard dance technique published by the Royal Gardeners Association (ISTD) defines weightlifting as: using feet and legs.

As the body rises and falls, "feet" are added to this definition. International Gardeners Association (1DTA)

) The dance skill book says in more detail: "Ascension is promoted by lifting the leg muscles, straightening the knees and stretching the body upwards.

Height, usually the heel will rise or leave the ground with the rising action: falling is the placement of the supported foot from the toe to the heel.

When you do the next step, your knees will relax. "Here added an element, namely" the use of the knee ". knee

The movement of the lid is absolutely necessary, especially in waltzes.

In Henry Jacques's book, it divides the rise and fall into three paragraphs to explain:

(a) correct physical and leg behavior and muscle tension

(B) the use of the knee

The use of feet.

In the skill book he wrote to NATD, he used a whole page to explain the lifting technology and nearly three pages to explain it.

Different application modes of ascension. In addition, he added a detailed diagram of the decomposition of knee movements.

Example: waltz turns naturally, a man's action:

1. Bend the right knee and put the weight on the right foot.

2. Bend your knees slightly and put the weight between your feet. Turn your center of gravity to your left foot. When the right foot is close to the left foot, it will gradually rise.

Straighten your knees.

Bend the right knee, put the weight on the right foot, and when the left foot is ready to move backwards for the next step, put down the heel of the right foot.

4. Bend the left knee and put the weight on the left foot.

5. Bend your knees slightly and put the weight on your feet.

6. Turn your center of gravity to your right foot. When the left foot is close to the right foot, straighten the knee gradually by raising it.

Bend the left knee, put the weight on the left foot, and put down the heel of the left foot when the right foot is ready to move backwards for the next step.

This is what a trained dancer should do, although it may not be when applying the above details to every step.

Yes, but the gardener or coach should fully understand the technical details. On the other hand, I am pseudoscience and redundant.

In that long and puzzling article, I also saw a lot of analysis of the lift. There is a circuitous explanation, putting the wall

The basic bar movements are divided into six half beats (l- and -2- and -3- and). Waltz is not as easy to follow as rumba.

Rhythm and prosody are analyzed, so it is foolish to analyze waltz according to the beat! General non-professional use, take the mouth.

It is much easier to explain the rise and fall of waltz with words and pictures, similar to the rise and fall arc of pendulum swing.

Just so-so It may be easier to understand with a garden swing or a circus swing. Every swing back and forth is like a waltz.

Music is the beat of every bar.

When you hear your favorite waltz music, you may "see" your body swinging on the high-altitude swing with the music.

. This is the basis of the rising and falling arc of the English waltz. With every bar of music, the body will be made like a garden swing or high altitude.

The action of the swing. Swing rhythm! Draw the speed characteristics of a garden swing or a high-altitude swing in your mind.

Describe the movement of your body and legs when you hear the waltz. There will be a short pause when you swing to the highest point, and then

The action of starting to descend is slow at first, accumulating speed before reaching the lowest swing point, and then gradually moving on the foot.

Gradually slow down your legs before stopping and ending. A short stay is a pleasant feeling, and it's perfect to be China.

The basic elements of the second son swing. Unfortunately, many dancers today use waltzes to choreograph, which often resists the correctness.

Swing action. They do too much syncopation, chasing and locking, etc. Take four steps in the bar of triple time, so

The characteristics of swaying in dance are almost lost. But with good guidance and practice, even syncopation can swing.

The characteristics of swinging. The rising and falling characteristics of the right-hand and left-hand swinging movements of the Vienna waltz are similar to those of the "English" waltz. The heaviest

The important point is that the swinging movement of the Viennese waltz is relatively shallow. In fact, the lifting of the feet is kept to a minimum.

The sixth step is rotation, in which the male soil lifts his feet to the end position in a "flat" posture. To illustrate this point in detail, this dance

The ups and downs in the middle are almost entirely expressed by the movements of the knees.

Abstract: Tango is the most special dance in the standard dance, and there is no ascending movement. Originally included in the standard dance.

One of the competition dances, I think that's because when it first appeared in the early 20th century, there were only standard dance competitions, and there was no Latin dance.

Because of the American dance competition. In other dances, the correct lifting action can increase the spicy feeling and expressive force, so it is more competitive.

Strive for Excellence: learn the dance steps of lift carefully. Developing the full artistic potential of this skill element will enable you to learn from it.

For the best interests.

Four skills

Four skills are fully reflected in modern ballroom dancing, especially waltz.

Reflexive action

When the left foot is forward, the right shoulder and right hip are forward; When the right foot is forward, the left shoulder and left hip are sent forward; When the left foot retreats, the right shoulder and

Make way for the right hip; When the right foot retreats, the left shoulder and left hip retreat: this makes the body and dance steps form a reverse coordination, which is called reflexivity.

Action. Reflexive movements are mainly used in the first step of turning left or right, which not only facilitates men and women to twist their waist and buttocks to the ground, but also increases the number of people who have turned left or right.

The beauty of dance.

(2) Lifting action

Various dance steps, the ups and downs of the body have changed, but the degree and requirements of ups and downs are different. Generally speaking, start.

The body will drop slightly, and the body will rise slightly when stepping. Bend your knees at first, and there will be obvious changes when you lift your heels after stepping. Pick it up and put it down

For the waltz whose skills are fully embodied, the first step is to bend your knees, the second step is to rise and fall, and the third step is to rise.

Raise your heels, rise to the highest point, and then descend, thus forming a wave-like curve. Show China

The lightness and elegance of Erz.

(3) Swing action

Swing action refers to the dancer's body swinging like a swing when moving forward and backward: when starting forward, it is like autumn.

Thousands of years ago, there was a feeling of swinging from bottom to top; When it moves backwards, it swings backwards from top to bottom like a swing.

This feeling.

(4) Tilting action

Tilting action refers to the dancer's body tilting left and right when she is walking left and right and turning left and right in the first step. When the dancer strode aside,

Always move the waist and buttocks with the footsteps, and then gradually follow up the part above the waist span to keep the center of gravity stable, which is formed.

A natural tilting action that conforms to the laws of physics. When the dancer turns left with his left foot or right with his left foot, he leans to the left to enter.

When your right foot turns right or your right foot turns left, your body leans to the right, which is also a natural leaning action. But be careful, dancer.

At this time, the body is tilted like a pendulum, and the spine is always straight and not bent. We can't mistake left-right tilt for left waist or right.

Bend the waist intentionally.
