Generally speaking, ballroom dancing is Taiwan Province provincial tango, cha-cha, waltz, three-step or six-step girouba, rumba, disco and Burroughs. Social dance focuses on the change of fancy. As long as you remember the basic footwork a little and practice hard, you can easily get on the road and enjoy dancing in two or three months. Because ballroom dancing is easy to use, there is still room for verbal communication and interaction with dancers. English is called ballroom dancing, which, as its name implies, means to enjoy the latest domestic pop music while dancing. It can not only achieve the effect of physical exercise, but also enhance interpersonal relationships. International standard dance, referred to as standard dance or national standard dance for short, is to standardize ballroom dance, plus beautiful modeling, beautiful skills, solid foundation and internationally renowned beautiful music. Because it's a little more difficult, you have to think hard, move your hands and learn in leisure sports, so you have to fall in love with it at one fell swoop. Basically, international standard dances can be divided into two categories. One is elegant and noble modern dance, which includes five kinds of dances, namely: waltz, English tango, fast three-step (court waltz), fast four-step and slow foxtrot; The other is lively and enthusiastic Latin dance, which is also divided into five dances, followed by cha-cha, rumba, samba, Spanish bullfighting and eight steps. If someone is praised as 10 decathlon, it means that he can dance various dances of modern dance and Latin dance. Most of the early dancers were 10 all-around, but in their short dance career, it was not easy to interpret these two dances with different styles just right. So recently, dancers all over the world have chosen to specialize in a single event (modern dance or Latin dance), and 10 athletes have gradually declined. World famous dancers can win thunderous applause as long as they dance on the stage. How many people envy! However, the success of dance masters has its secrets. A famous dancer will choose a good environment to learn dance at first. This good environment has all kinds of excellent conditions. First, where should he choose to study? Which teacher taught it? Choosing good music, a good dance floor and a pair of good dancing shoes will make you lose at the starting point. Therefore, Mihura Kenzo, a famous Japanese dancer, once said, "Dancing should start with good floors, good music and good partners. It is possible to dance well. " When it comes to the environment for learning dance, it refers to the place for learning dance. Generally, large buildings have activity centers, social halls, conference halls or large classrooms, and even private apartments, and there are places for dancing, followed by dance classrooms, dance halls and dance halls. Dancers should not only consider the convenience nearby, or choose a place to practice dancing with cheap money as the main consideration, which will make you lose many opportunities. Generally speaking, dancing places should have both hardware and software equipment, and wooden floor equipment is an ideal condition. However, some activity centers or conference halls are often ceramic tiles or plastic floors, or even carpet floors. Because dancing was not the purpose at the beginning, you have no choice but to make do with it. This non-standard floor can't achieve good results. It is better to choose a place with wooden floor to practice dancing. Of course, the general professional dance classroom, regardless of the floor, sound, teachers and other equipment are relatively complete. As for the ballroom or dance floor, although the floor, stereo and other equipment may be better, but the environment is more complicated, of course, there are several good dance floors, which are also good places to provide dance practice. Of course, the partner is also one of the conditions for practicing dance. How to choose a partner is also an important topic. As the saying goes, those who are near Zhu Zhechi are black. Learning to dance is like playing golf. Usually play with people who are better than themselves, so as to help themselves and make progress. In the initial stage, it is not easy to judge who dances better. When you enter the situation, you will find out whether the people around you are your partner. Of course, if someone is drunk and looks good, it will always be given priority. As a condition of choosing a partner, people will always make slow progress. To make progress, you can only dance well if you find someone better than you and dance with you immediately. Choosing a teacher is also an important topic. You can't assume that the person who wins the most prizes must be a good teacher. Some people can dance but can't teach, but they can't teach well, or they usually like to put on airs and swear, which makes you lose confidence in yourself. What else can I learn from dancing? Who is a good teacher? You may get some comments and information from friends or dance circles. Besides, you can judge from many aspects. Generally speaking, teachers with full courses, deep qualifications, richer teaching experience, affinity and serious teaching attitude are also high-level teachers. Of course, besides teaching dance, teachers should also pay attention to their appearance and temperament. After all, dancing is a gentleman's sport that conforms to international etiquette. If you are disheveled, keep your cigarettes and smell bad, it will greatly affect your class mood, which is unique in the international dance world. Some teachers are used to teaching in groups. After an hour, I'm sure it will take less than a few minutes, and you will feel like a dissatisfied housewife in a palace. If you choose several courses or take individual courses, the tuition may be higher, but the teacher has more time to teach you. This is a choice between money and time. Touch your pockets before you decide! Finally, when it comes to dancing shoes, they are the most important things for dancers. If music is the soul of a dancer, then dancing shoes are the dancer's life, an extension of the dancer's body and a part of it. Most people may think that dancing with a pair of ordinary casual shoes is enough, so why spend money on dancing shoes? Or simply buy a pair of cheap cottage shoes to make up for it. You're not very good at dancing anyway. You should be more careful that some teachers or stores try their best to sell inferior dancing shoes in order to make more money and higher profits. This concept of "stealing only a dime is not a thief" is a poison that hinders progress. You know, if you want to do a good job, you must sharpen your knife first. Each dance has its own special shoes, modern dance shoes, modern dance shoes. Ballet has Latin shoes, other ballet shoes, tap shoes, and recently tango shoes. This year, the British Shiba Inu Dance Shoes Company even introduced coach shoes for teachers or judges, with a fine division of labor. Each shoe has its own different structure and characteristics to adapt to various dance steps. It is suggested that beginners can buy a pair of training shoes for dancing first, such as Shiba Inu 18. After entering the second stage, you can buy a pair of Latin modern dual-purpose shoes. When girls begin to learn, they should wear two-inch low-heeled shoes first, and then gradually increase them to two and a half inches and three inches ..... so as not to sprain their ankles due to unstable center of gravity. High heels are a creepy burden for beginners. Low-heeled dancing shoes are the favorite of beginners and tall girls, or girls who dance men's steps, while three-inch high heels are really graceful and suitable for dancers with higher education. Dancers who can't make good use of their shoes, like players on the golf course, choose the wrong bat and can't get on the green, only regret missing applause and bonuses. This year, while watching the Blackpool competition in England, the author took the opportunity to visit those dance shoe manufacturers and was curious about the crowded Shiba Inu dance shoes. He also made a lot of in-depth discussions to understand why their dancing shoes are so popular all over the world every year. I really admire their ergonomic research and huge design lineup. Because of the suspicion of favoring advertisements, it is not convenient to introduce them here, but I have to say one thing. Mr. Mick Freer, the old chairman who visited Shiba Inu shoes, once said a famous saying to me, which made me agree with him very much. He said, "Dancing starts with the ears, and then starts with the feet. Dance shoes are a part of the dancer's body, and you must never ignore them. " This is a deep sentence and a summary of their decades of shoemaking experience. Among the top ten basic skills, reflexive rotation skills can be called skills in skills or the essence of basic skills. Following the purpose and principle of the introduction, this paper tries to analyze the position of reflexive rotation technology in basic skills and its relationship with other nine technologies and all ten dances. What is reflexive rotation skill (hereinafter referred to as reflexive rotation skill)? In the classic textbooks, it is called "relative body movement" and "refers to turning in the direction of the action leg with the relative hip and shoulder". This inexplicable and grammatical expression, if replaced by "yangko", is not comprehensive and unscientific, but easy to understand. This is: "Left leg front (back), turn left (right); The right leg is forward (back) and the body turns right (left). " By the way, it should be emphasized that reflexive skills are based on the premise of "feet move with you" and aim at "feet move with you". Analysis of another article "Feet follow you"-a note. "Reflexive", we can see her figure when playing football and kicking shuttlecock, find her feelings, and realize that she is actually a natural coordination to promote human flow and maintain human balance. As for the progress of the guard of honor, because of the special treatment to show the unified effect of lower limbs and upper limbs, we did not see "reflexivity". Reflexive skills run through all basic skills and are applied to the basic skills of all kinds of dances. First, the left-right rotation of plane traction requires reflexive skills. The reflexive skills (relative body movements) in classic textbooks are elaborated for "rotating dance steps", that is, rotating forward and left and right and rotating backward and left and right. This is a direct application of reflexive skills. The classic textbooks also suggest the matters needing attention in this process, and select the following easy-to-understand excerpts for reference. "You should know what the basic elements of controlling rotation are." "Apart from axial movement, this relative body rotation is not a fixed-point movement. For example, when turning right forward, the first feeling is that the body turns left and forward, not right. " "Although relative body movements include both hip and shoulder rotation, if you try to understand that forward rotation is mainly driven by shoulders and backward rotation is mainly driven by hips, these slight differences in feelings ... are extremely beneficial." ... it's completely wrong to have an angle when your feet stick out. "... second, the back-and-forth movement of plane traction requires reflexive skills. In classic textbooks, this reflexive technique is manifested as "relative body movement position" and "incomplete upper body rotation", including three types: complete incomplete rotation, incomplete rotation leading to shoulder development and incomplete rotation that never disappears. In the forward and backward movements, the "foot moves with you" is realized through the incomplete rotation of the upper body, which is an indirect application of reflexive skills. The classic textbook prompts the precautions in this process. Here are some easy-to-understand excerpts for your reference. " Relative body movements are body movements, and the position of relative body movements is a position, which means that when the body is not rotating, one foot straddles the front or back of the body, "every dance step outside the partner must cross the body" and "the position of relative body movements is often used in tango and all marching dance steps" ... Third, the posture of vertical traction requires reflexive skills. Regarding the holding posture, classic textbooks, video professors and on-site explanations have detailed and straightforward expressions. The main points are summarized as follows: the waist, buttocks and back are straight vertically, the big arms and back are straight horizontally, and the shoulders are naturally relaxed while the neck is pulled up; Men's left forearm goes up and right forearm goes down, while women's left and right forearms go up; The angle between the forearms of men is about 120, and that of women is about 90. This is the basic requirement, and the higher requirement depends on whether reflexive skills are used. If the reflexive technique is adopted, the upper body is slightly inclined to the left to achieve the effect of Oracle Bone Inscriptions protruding from the left back and shoulders, and the upper body shows the best coordination performance at this time. This is especially important for women, that is to say, as a dancing girl, the fingers of the hero's right hand should be obviously prominent. Fourth, tilting, swinging and lifting also require reflexive skills. It was discussed in the last article and will not be repeated here. As for not leaking traces, rolling all feet, leading dancing and rhythm processing, of course, there is no direct relationship. All five or ten basic skills need reflexive skills. The above analysis is mainly aimed at modern dance, but it is also applicable to Latin. Rumba, cha-cha, cowboy, samba and bullfighting, which are characterized by swinging hips and shrinking hips, require reflexive skills in addition to the principle of "feet moving with them". Because of the fast pace and many hips, the role of reflexive skills is not so obvious and prominent. If we slow down like cartoons, we will feel "reflexivity, very different!" "Now let's try the fastest-paced cowboy (male step)-when the left leg is straight and the left leg is stepped on-when the upper body is left/the left foot is retracted-when the upper body is right/the left foot is stepped on twice-when the upper body is right/the right foot is stepped on twice-when the upper body is left/the left leg is straightened for the second time-and so on. If the upper body does not have this "incomplete rotation" (a classic textbook term), it is hard to imagine what kind of effect it would be.
