Body should be upright and straight
The most common mistake when dancing is "collapsing the waist and pouting the buttocks", which shows that they are not good at controlling their own bodies, or that their bodies are still in the natural state of life. When you dance, you should first stand up your waist, and when you do so, you should put your tummy and buttocks back in place. In this way the body can be kept upright. Of course, the requirements of a straight body are not only these, it also includes, open the shoulders, the back is straight, and feel to stand there, as if the body grows taller. By doing this, the body can overcome its natural state and maintain the kind of straightness needed for dancing. To be straight is not to tense the body to the point of stiffening everything from the facial muscles to the neck. Dancing with a stiff body does not bring beauty. In dancing, whether standing, squatting, or jumping, the body needs to be straight and naturally beautiful.
How to Straighten Your Arms
When an inept dancer raises both arms above his head, other children often sneer at him as if he were surrendering. A closer look at his arms reveals two faults: one is that they are too curved, and the other is that they are positioned too far back. This example shows that, in general, the arms should be stretched out long enough to look good. Also, it looks good to have the arm a little in front of the body, whether it is by the head or by the side of the body.
But an arm that is only long and grows without any curvature, like a stick, does not look good either. The arm should not be only long, but also round. Starting from the shoulder to the elbow, the wrist, and the tips of the fingers, they should be kept a little bent and a little round. But you can't bend it too much; if you do, your arm will look short, and your elbow and wrist will look like they're about to break.
How can I make my arms long and round? For example, if the two arms in front of the body or next to the palms of the hands relatively flat, starting from the shoulder to the fingertips, should be a little lower, dripping water on the shoulder, you can make it along the big arm, the small arm has been along the fingertips gradually flow down. Being able to achieve this in a general way, the arm also appears long and round. If not, the arm is bent too much, the drip will not flow to the fingers, then, will destroy the beauty of the arm.
In addition to this, the fingers should also be loose and natural, not because of the posture, and make the fingers stiff. The beauty of the dance is mainly expressed in the upper body. And the upper body is mainly expressed in the arm. If we straighten our arms, it will also bring people the enjoyment of beauty.
The Art of Stretching the Legs
It is common to see people dancing with their legs up high, but their knees are bent and their feet are hooked, which makes them look unattractive. The beauty of the line of the leg does not lie in whether it is lifted high or not, but in whether it is straightened or not. A dance with the leg lifted low is not necessarily unattractive. Of course, there are also dance poses where the legs are bent. For example, it is common to dance with one leg upright, the other leg forward or backward, and the calf bent upward, which is also very beautiful. But this bending is controlled, and there is a conscious effort to make it bend this way. In many of the Dunhuang dances, not only are the knees bent, but the feet are hooked, too, but that is a bend of a special flavor, a hook of a special need.
People who dance sometimes have that kind of bending or hooking, not because the dancer doesn't straighten his legs or tense his feet, but because his time and place require him to do so. But what children show when they dance is that they don't straighten their legs or tense their feet. For example, the "jumping run" that children often do, with one foot on the ground and the other raised with the foot hooked, is not beautiful in any way. Free gymnastics or artistic gymnastics, although it does not have more artistic content, but the athlete's arched back of the foot, the leg outward, clear lines, can give people the enjoyment of beauty. Therefore, you must be able to straighten your legs, so that you can learn to tense your feet, and when you dance, not only will others look beautiful, but you will also feel comfortable.
The whole body as a whole
The difference between dance and gymnastics is that dance is most concerned about the beauty of the feeling of movement. If a hand is stretched out, is it high, or is it low, is the palm up, or is it down, is the movement soft, or is it powerful. The line of sight goes with what is seen, whether it is softly looked at, or firmly looked at, and so on. Together, these factors add up to a sense of whether the children are looking at a flower or picking one; whether they are pointing at something or looking off into the distance at something.
To pay attention to the children's eyes requirements and training, to guide them to start from the hand-eye coordination, to feel the beauty of movement. The beauty of movement feeling is also expressed in the harmony of the upper and lower body. If one swings, but the body is tilted to the right, or upright and motionless, the upper and lower body will show disharmony. If a right hand on the head, the left hand in front of the chest of the dance, not only the hand is tilted to the left, the whole body feeling is tilted to the left, will produce the beauty of movement harmony.
Specific notes
1, the choice of music. Exam will have a personal work show or folk dance performance, in the choice of music I hope to pay attention to a few points:
(1) need to do the editing process, don't take the whole song to go, there is not so much time for you to complete the dance, usually 8 8 beats, and sometimes a large number of people, the time is tight will become 4 8 beats, if it's very exciting, the teacher does not call a halt, so that you can dance enough to 8 8 beats.
(2) It is best to edit the exam tracks and burn them on a separate CD-ROM, so that the teacher can play them, and if you can't find them quickly, the teacher will give you a number of beats to jump.
(3) It is best to quickly enter the most wanted to show the part, do not engage in too long prelude, don't not get up from the ground, time is up, was called off.
(4) A long intro with little movement means you're calling it quits before you've even warmed up, and you're basically still on top of your original movement.
(5) Choose music that you can follow the rhythm of, so that the teacher also produces ****ing sound, the teacher who puts the music will sometimes be intoxicated for a while, then you can show more.
The music chosen must be conducive to the display and full demonstration of personal strengths and skills
2, clothing
(1) do not spend too much time in the costume, usually in the basic skills after the completion of the pants on it.
(2) Tailor your clothes to either help show off your form or to cover up any deficiencies in your form.
(3) dance costumes to facilitate the scene to change, do not engage in the kind of scene to take off the wear, wear off, after all, the scene of men and women.
(4) clothes to wear up to the spirit, some ethnic costumes may be wide, but to choose the time to pay attention to wear to be like a thing.
3, the basic aspects of the examination
(1) observation of the form (2) on the handle dry, kicking legs (3) under the fork (4) jump in place 8 times (5) hold the knee squat (6) personal skills demonstration (7) movement mimicry (8) folk dance (9) individual works
4, be sure to carefully read the examination requirements, the examination process and other documents published by the test center. For example, this year in the provincial examination, some candidates did not carefully read the requirements of the examination point before the examination, did not prepare for the folk dance, resulting in the project test score can only be scratched up to pass, although excellent but not according to the requirements of the examination to complete the examination subjects can not be a high score!
