1. Hip movement
The crotch movement is one of the iconic movements of Latin dance, in addition to the bullfighting dance, the other four dances have the crotch movement, which will be the female big soft and charming performance to the extreme, it is hard to imagine that there is no crotch movement of the Latin dance, for example, Rumba will be like. As the saying goes, "seeing is believing", but it is not true, the eyes also have times to deceive themselves, such as the Latin dance's hips, because of its left and right back and forth swing, it is thought that it is twisted, that would be a big mistake. The hips swinging back and forth is the surface phenomenon, not the inner essence. Any movement of the Latin dance body is the result of the foot exerting pressure on the ground, confronting the ground, and then squeezing the body. So the formation of the action, from the foot action is very solid, iron plate, the ground; from the crotch action is full of toughness and strength, at all times like an elastic rubber.

When dancing, the floor is the best friend, the more force you give to the floor, the more expressive the floor gives.

6. Characteristics of the Choreography of Children and Young People and the Points to Note
Nowadays, there are many children dancing and performing in Latin Dance, and rehearsal is a big headache because children are always disobedient. Therefore, the arrangement of the dance will need to be adjusted according to the characteristics of small children, and need to be considered well in advance.
Choose 3-5 minutes of clear rhythm, slower music, if two children perform, it is recommended to use the rumba or cha-cha-cha. If you are dancing in a group, you can use cha-cha or cowboy.

They will be able to string together the basic steps, combined with the ups and downs of the music to change, in the climax of the music you can choose to expressive action, or choose a few shapes. The movements don't need to be too much, they need to be fine-tuned one by one, and constantly adjusted.
For duo dance, you need to choose a greater range of action, movement also needs to be more, so as to look on the field is not monotonous. You can also choose more complex combinations of movements, and especially practice more open movements and shapes, which are more likely to be colorful.
But for a group dance with a large number of people, it's best to keep each person in a small area to avoid disorganization and to make it easier to train.
There are three general forms of choreography for children's Latin group dances. One is to have each pair of children dance a complete set of routines, and to enhance the effect with a combination of changes in the formation. The other is the combination of a combination of routines, combined with a combination of pairs of routines. There is also the possibility of interspersing a variety of five sets of combinations together, with better stage effects, which is more suitable for older children, who have a certain level of skill to dance.
