Key points of bullfighting dance

Bullfighting dance is transliterated from a foreign language called Pasodol. We used to call it the bullfighting dance. Bullfighting originated in Spain. The dance action of the bullfighting dance is to imitate the action of the Spanish matador, and its music is accompanied by the Spanish style March. Its music and dance all express the tension and excitement in the bullring.

In the action of bullfighting dance, the man imitates the matador and the woman symbolizes the cloak in the matador's hand. Therefore, the man must maintain a strong heroic posture, and the woman must cooperate tacitly with the man to defeat the bison.

The music of the bullfight dance is 2/4 beats, two beats in a bar, and the stress is in the first beat. The dance begins with the first beat of the music section.

The steps of the bullfight dance are one step at a time, and it has four steps and eight steps.

Bullfighting dance, like samba, is also a marching dance.

Bullfighting dance is a kind of dance that shows the spectacular scene of the matador waving his cloak and bravely fighting with bison in the bullring. The bullfighting dance is accompanied by the Spanish-style March, and its bright rhythm and powerful melody set off the exciting emotions in the bullring. When jumping a bullfight, a man must maintain a strong and heroic posture, with strong foot movements and slightly bent knees, so as to control the leg movements. Footsteps should be followed by palms, and male and female partners should be closer. All the dance steps, the coordination of arm movements and the rotation of the body should be strong, fast and firm, and stop instantly, with special emphasis on the strength of knees and feet.

Some movements, under normal circumstances, men and women have no relative foot movements. For example, 16 step 7- 16, the man's feet are in place, and the woman's movements change from hand-in-hand posture to anti-hand-in-hand posture. When a woman dances her dance steps, men will change the shape of their arms from hand in hand to hand in reverse. Of course, many dance teachers will slightly deform the movements in the sixteen steps. Men also have movements in the 16-step 7- 16 dance steps, instead of standing still, they change one foot in place and the other foot stretches out a small step without center of gravity; The extended foot returns to its original position, and the other foot extends again. This is the deformation of dance, which is a common method used by some high-level dance teachers when choreographing. So when watching others dance the Latin dance of the same name, you will find that the method of dancing is not exactly the same, because it is modified on the basis of the prototype.

Bullfighting, we must maintain a momentum, because we have to fight with bison, so we can't be casual, we must always have pride and self-confidence, and we must conform to the style of bullfighting we mentioned earlier. Many people feel depressed when they dance bullfighting. It's very ugly to jump a bullfight like this. First of all, it shows that dancers only learn dance steps and know nothing about the style and characteristics of bullfighting.

When jumping a bullfight, the movements should conform to the rhythm and be in harmony with the artistic conception of the music. When you open your arms, you should feel like opening a cloak. You should make your arms full of strength. Although I have nothing in my hand, my arm is full of internal force-the power that spreads from the inside out, as if I were clutching my cloak hard.

When jumping bullfighting, always keep your hips slightly forward and keep your center of gravity on the palm of your front foot. And the crotch is often pushed forward to one side. When many people learn bullfighting, the teacher must have said this. But many people didn't understand it, so they jumped out in the wrong posture. When you stand up and move your body, the posture of pushing your hips forward can never be changed. Although some people know that the position of the bullfight dance is slightly in front of the hips, it is still correct in its original position. However, as long as you start to move your body, the feeling of your hips is gone, your posture is wrong, and your shelf is scattered. Some serious ones not only don't push their asses forward, but even push their asses back, so there is no feeling of bullfighting at all. Therefore, the hip forward is the most important symbolic action in the bullfighting dance, so we must pay attention to it.

Niuwu is the simplest of the five Latin dances, but few of them can dance well, because most people don't understand the style and characteristics of Niuwu. It is impossible for a teacher to explain a dance style in such detail when teaching students (beginners). Even if he did, many people couldn't understand it or forgot it. Therefore, I have sorted out the style and characteristics of bullfighting dance and the places that need attention here for beginners' reference. I hope everyone can carry forward the bullfighting dance.
