Sink your shoulders, and then keep your elbows in a natural curve (slightly bent). Open your jaw naturally. (Girls: middle finger slightly presses down, boys open their jaws, and the other four fingers naturally close together.) During the dance, your arms should be smooth and natural, not stiff.
Rumba, in particular, pays attention to the process of dancing, so in the process of moving your hand from one position to another, you should pay attention to the combination of speed and speed, fill up the music and don't grab the music. The music in your hand should be as natural and smooth as running water.
Extended data:
The essentials of practicing hip swing in Latin dance: while the left leg is straight (at this time, the left knee should be locked), press the left hip to the left rear with internal force, and at the same time bend the right leg forward slightly, follow the rhythm, and then straighten the right leg hard.
Press the right hip to the right rear with internal force (at this time, the right leg knee will shrink to death), and the left leg knee will bend forward slightly. Repeat this swing, plus the following of the center of gravity and the matching traction and swing of the upper body.
The hip swing in rumba is the swing of pelvis and hip caused by the straightening and bending of knee. It is not a deliberate hip-shaking, but an internal force that squeezes the hips backwards.
When doing hip-swinging, the upper body should be kept straight, the overall feeling should be lifted, the shoulders should be flat, and the upper body should never be tilted.
