Aerobics was first popularized in colleges and universities.
In the early 1980s, the worldwide aerobics craze spread to China. At that time, with the deepening of education system reform in China, "aesthetic education" gradually occupied a place in school education. Therefore, the introduction and rise of aerobics provide an important means for aesthetic education in China.
From 198 1 to 1983, when aerobics was introduced to China, many college teachers published some articles introducing aerobics and discussing aesthetic education in newspapers and magazines, and arranged some aerobics sets, such as "aerobics for young women", "dumbbell aerobics" and "body aerobics", in pursuit of human health and beauty.
From 65438 to 0984, Beijing Institute of Physical Education set up an aerobics research group, which arranged and initiated "Youth Rhythm Exercise" all over the country, and countless young students devoted themselves to the craze of learning "Youth Rhythm Exercise", which made aerobics rapidly popular in Chinese universities. Since then, many colleges and universities have included aerobics in the teaching syllabus, which has become an important physical education teaching content, and various aerobics teaching materials have come out one after another, which has promoted the theoretical research of aerobics.
In order to promote the development of college students' aerobics in China, the Aerobics Rhythmic Gymnastics Branch of China University Sports Association decided to promote a set of aerobics recognized by the association among college students every year from 1993.
At the same time, performing aerobics and competitive aerobics have begun to appear in schools, and good teachers and venue conditions in colleges and universities have laid the foundation for the popularization of competitive aerobics. Every year, many colleges and universities organize teams to participate in various forms of national aerobics competitions. Nowadays, colleges and universities have become an important base for the development of competitive aerobics in China.
The Rise and Popularization of Social Aerobics Fever
From 65438 to 0987, Li Sheng Health City, the first aerobics fitness center in China, opened to the outside world, introducing aerobics as a new sport to the public for the first time. Its novel exercise mode and good fitness effect were quickly accepted by people, attracting a large number of fitness enthusiasts. Subsequently, more and more fitness centers with aerobics as the main form were opened in the society.
Especially in Beijing, Guangzhou, Shanghai and other large and medium-sized cities, people's minds are more open, and the pursuit of health and beauty has become fashionable. With the continuous improvement of living standards, the investment in health is gradually rooted in people's hearts. Therefore, thousands of people in Qian Qian are keen on fitness and aerobics. They take part in 1- 1.5 hours of aerobic exercise twice a week. Through exercise, it not only strengthens the body, but also entertains the body and mind, making aerobics an important part of the fitness market. In addition, the emergence of a large number of aerobics programs in TV and other related media has also promoted the sustainable development of social aerobics fever.
The development of social aerobics in China is greatly influenced by "jane fonda Aerobics", which has formed various schools with the passage of time. These different schools of aerobics have their own characteristics, but there is still a certain distance from the development of international aerobics. For example, there are many problems in exercise content, such as attaching importance to aerobics exercise, ignoring strength exercise, and excessive jumping action to increase exercise load. It is believed that with the deepening of people's understanding of aerobics and the strengthening of international exchanges, as well as the introduction of social aerobics instructor system and aerobics level movements by China Aerobics Association, these problems will be gradually solved, and the future aerobics practice methods and market management will also be internationalized and scientific.
Construction of Aerobics Management System in China
1992, China Aerobics Association. China Aerobics Association is a national sports association recognized by the Chinese Olympic Committee. The establishment of the Association has brought aerobics in China into a new period of organized and planned development.
For a long time, China Aerobics Association has overcome the difficulties of few personnel and insufficient funds, and has done a lot of work for the popularization of aerobics. For example, the annual training courses for aerobics coaches and referees and the national aerobics championships have achieved the goal of taking the road of market economy and supporting themselves without the state paying a penny.
With the deepening of China's economic and sports system reform, China Aerobics Association was merged from the social sports center into the Gymnastics Management Center of the State Sports General Administration at the beginning of 1997. This reform has straightened out the relationship between China and the world and the internal management system, and has successively formulated the Measures for the Management of Aerobics Activities, the Measures for the Implementation of National Aerobics Instructors' Professional and Technical Levels (for Trial Implementation) and the Measures for the Implementation of National Aerobics Mass Exercise Standards. These measures are of great significance to the popularization and improvement of aerobics in China, and will certainly promote the rapid development of aerobics in China.
Standardization and diversification of aerobics competition in China
At the early stage of the development of aerobics in China, the first "Great Wall Cup" aerobics competition was jointly held by Kang Hua Institute of Bodybuilding, Beijing Institute of Physical Education and CCTV on 1987, and then aerobics competitions for children, teenagers and middle-aged and elderly people were organized respectively. The content of these competitions is mainly fitness aerobics. For example, in the early 1990s, with the China Aerobics Association, aerobics competitions in China were gradually standardized. The official national aerobics competitions held in China every year include national aerobics championships, tournaments and industry system competitions, such as the national aerobics competition for college students and the national aerobics competition for employees. From 1997, the national championship was changed to the national championship and sports meeting, which increased the aerobics competition of middle-aged and old-aged groups, and divided the youth group into group A and group B according to the competition results, which increased the diversity of aerobics competition and attracted more people to participate in aerobics competition.
International communication is gradually on the right track.
As early as 1987, the aerobics team of Beijing Institute of Physical Education visited Japan, which was the first time that China aerobics went abroad. From 65438 to 0988, China held the "Great Wall Cup" aerobics friendly invitational tournament, in which athletes from China, Japan, Hongkong, China, Taipei, China and other countries and regions participated.
1At the end of 1995, China sent a team to participate in the first World Aerobics Championship held by the International Sports Federation in France for the first time. 1997 With the integration of the Aerobics Association into the Gymnastics Center, more attention was paid to the international exchange of aerobics, and teams were sent to participate in the LAF World Cup held in Japan in April, the 4th World Championship held in Italy in May and the ANAC World Championship held in the United States in July. Although our achievements in these competitions are not ideal, the competition is a good start for our competitive aerobics to go global. 1997 and 148, China also sent eight people to attend the training courses for international referees and coaches organized by the International Sports Federation. These international exchanges and studies enabled us to understand the development trend and technical development trend of international aerobics and deepen our understanding of international rules and aerobics techniques. I believe that with the gradual normalization of our international exchanges in the future, it will greatly promote the development of aerobics and the improvement of technical level in China.
