Jazz dance is elegant and flexible, it is a whole-body exercise, suitable for slimming and shaping. Let me talk about the specific introduction. I hope you like it.
Jazz dance has a history of 100 years, and it is still very popular with its lively dance steps. When dancing jazz dance, the movements are generally large, so you can fully exercise your whole body muscles, have a body-shaping effect, and exercise the coordination of your hands and feet. Jazz dance originated in Africa, and locals like to use this dance to vent their emotions. Later, this dance spread to America and became more and more popular. Dance coach Mo Jianzhong said: Jazz dance is loved by people all over the world because of its strong sense of rhythm, lively style and flexible movements. ? As long as the posture is correct, jazz dance is quite helpful to lose weight. ? When dancing this dance, it will be repeatedly applied to many parts of the body, including some relatively hidden parts of the body, such as the inner thigh. Exercise more, fat can be transformed into muscle, and your muscles can be strengthened. ? In the process of dancing, muscles and bones are relaxed and become more elastic, which helps to reduce the chance of daily sprain, so it is suitable for urbanites who exercise less on weekdays.
Jazz dance belongs to aerobic exercise, which is a whole-body exercise. Mainly exercise the muscles of abdomen, upper body, legs and hind legs. Because it can exercise the flexibility of the whole body muscles, it is very effective to improve the body lines. In the process of jazz dance exercise, with the extension of time, the proportion of fat energy supply is also increasing, so in order to achieve better body shaping effect, it is necessary to extend the exercise time appropriately and persevere.
Some people worry that jazz dance with a wide range of activities is easy to hurt people, but it turns out to be quite safe. ? Although the movements are stiff and flexible, the dance steps are not complicated. On the contrary, dance steps are composed of simple movements, which are not as easy to strain muscles and bones as some sports. ? Jazz dancing is not only good for muscles, but also good for the operation of the brain. ? Many dance steps need to constantly change the movements of limbs, so it is necessary to concentrate, from which the spirit can gradually become concentrated. Dancing more helps to exercise concentration, make the mind clearer, and help to work and read. ? In the process of rapid transformation of body movements, the coordination ability of hands and feet is also improved. Jazz dancing will be accompanied by light music, which will help to relax the spirit and even bring a pleasant feeling. Suitable for stressed urbanites, and because of this advantage, there are many elderly participants.
Jazz dance, like many sports, pays attention to warming up. ? If you want to dance flexibly, you must warm up first, because you can relax tight muscles and dance more easily; Most importantly, warm-up can prevent sports injuries. ? Remember to do relaxation exercises after dancing to relax tight muscles. It is worth mentioning that the pain of the original jazz dancers is inevitable. ? It is normal to feel muscle aches 2-3 days after dancing. If the dance steps are intense, the pain can last for 4-5 days, but as long as you practice frequently, the pain time will be shortened. ? Of course, you must learn from a qualified tutor, so that your muscles will not be injured because of the wrong posture. In addition, people with heart problems should not dance jazz, after all, the action is big and the heart may not be able to bear it. As for some people whose spine is naturally straight at the end, it will be more difficult to learn this dance at first, but most of them can be overcome slowly.
Matters needing attention in jazz dance include:
Cardiopulmonary endurance, generally speaking, the time of an action combination in jazz dance is not very long, but the rest time between combinations is often very short. Therefore, if learners have good cardio-pulmonary endurance, they will generally maintain good dance skills after repeated movements for many times to avoid premature fatigue.
Flexibility, no matter what kind of dance you dance, if you want to dance beautifully, your body must be flexible, otherwise you can't give full play to the beauty of lines, and jazz dance is no exception. Be sure to pay attention to the stretching action of warm-up. Before the body muscles are fully warmed up, it is not appropriate to stretch in the form of elastic vibration, otherwise it will be counterproductive and strain the muscles. Static stretching is safer, but it also requires patience. Flexibility exercises should not reach the level of pain, as long as the muscles feel tight. The duration (angle) of the action can range from 10 seconds to 30-40 seconds. The longer the time, the higher the load of muscles and connective tissue near the joint.
Coordination is very important in jazz dance. In addition to the coordination of hands and feet, there is also the coordination of head, trunk and limbs. In addition, in jazz dance, different parts of the body dance at different rhythms at the same time, which is really a great test for the dancers' coordination ability. For beginners, it is appropriate to practice the movements of different parts of the body first and then continue to cooperate with the required movements, so that the sense of success will be higher.
Dexterity, in jazz dance, different directions and different levels of movements are often used to increase the sense of excitement and entertainment, so dancers must be dexterous and skilled, and the angle should be accurate and rapid when turning around.
The ability of balance and dynamic balance is often more widely used in jazz dance than static balance, that is to say, dancers must clearly shift the focus of dance steps, in addition, they must skillfully position themselves with their eyes to help them keep balance when turning around.
Body composition, the vast majority of excellent jazz dancers are muscular, but generally less body fat. This makes their bodies show obvious muscle stripes, which makes them feel more energetic and powerful when dancing. The lower fat content also prevents the dancer from bearing unnecessary weight, making the dance action more chic and light. Although learning jazz dance can also be a way to lose weight, it is suitable for overweight beginners to lose weight by other ways first, otherwise it will cause a certain crisis to the health of muscles and joints.
Muscle strength and endurance, many quick and instantaneous movements in jazz dance, so basic muscle strength is necessary. In addition, because learning to dance often needs to practice the same movement many times, the requirements for muscle endurance are relatively high. In particular, the endurance of lower limb muscles must be well exercised, otherwise it is easy to cause damage to knees, ankles, hip joints and nearby muscles. Jazz dancers also strengthen their muscles through other auxiliary exercises (such as water exercises and yoga training).
