Also known as posture requirements. That is, when the whole body is relaxed, look for the straight feeling of the ceiling on the top of the head, along the longitudinal traction from the lumbar vertebrae and cervical vertebrae to the top of the head, abdominal distension and chest expansion, flat back, waist and buttocks pulling up, shoulders sinking, knees adducted and perpendicular to the ground.

Second, the aircraft traction skills.

This is the key to realize the shift of center of gravity. The point is, no matter front, back, left and right, the legs and feet are driven by the waist and hip: the feet move with you, the body moves with the hips, and the hips move to the body. Even if the body and feet arrive at the same time, does the foot follow you or does the body follow the foot? Different consciousness will bring completely different effects.

Only when the feet follow you can the dragon (snake) wag its tail and flow like water. Some people have been dancing for many years, why are they still "stepping on their feet" and "afraid of stepping on their feet"? This is because their bodies move with their feet.

Third, reflexive skills.

The so-called reflexivity is to use the rotation consciousness of the waist axis to drive the (incomplete) rotation of the upper body. Its function is to help the human body push out the center of gravity. Once the center of gravity is in place, reflexivity disappears in the natural inclination. Reflection is not only a prelude to the rotating dance step, but also a transition between other dance steps. Without reflexive skills, the body will appear stiff; With reflexivity, the shift of center of gravity will be icing on the cake.

Fourth, tilt skills.

The tilt mentioned here is characterized by the deviation of the longitudinal axis of the human body from the longitudinal axis. Its function is to promote the flow of the human body through the strength of the waist axis, and to show the beautiful shape of the curve with reflexive action. Like reflexivity, you need to pay attention to shoulder distortion and waist bending.

Extended data:

Latin dance is a kind of dance art that focuses on moving shoulders, abdomen, waist and buttocks. There are hundreds of muscles such as rectus abdominis, oblique abdominis, oblique abdominis, erector spinae, latissimus dorsi, etc.

Since 1960s, many researchers have studied the physiological and psychological effects of sports dance. On average, for every Latin dance, the waist twists 160~ 180 times, and the highest heart rate of women can reach 197 times per minute, and that of men can reach 2 10 times per minute.

About the energy metabolism above 8.5, it is equivalent to the heat consumed by athletes to complete an 800-meter competition, which is greater than that of tennis and badminton. The effect of reducing fat can be imagined.

Cardiovascular aspect: Latin dance can increase the heart rate from 80 beats per minute to 120 beats, and some even more. Its efficacy is equivalent to any physical training or aerobic exercise, which can enhance the strength and endurance of the heart.
