I'm looking for an explanation of the various dances of the various ethnic groups within the scope of basic competence.

On the classification of dance

On the classification of dance, like the classification of other arts, it has always been a matter of diverse opinions. This is not only because people have different opinions, different classification methods, and more importantly, the composition of a work of art is often more complex, its artistic characteristics are not so single, often presenting a mixed situation, which gives us a certain degree of difficulty in the classification of dance. For example, "Red Silk Dance", from the point of view of the style of dance, it is folk dance; from the point of view of shaping artistic image and reflecting the characteristics of life, it is a lyrical dance; from the point of view of the style of expression and dance genre, it is a group dance; from the point of view of the form of the dance, it is a props dance; from the point of view of the performance venue and the purpose of the show, it is a stage performance dance; from the point of view of the taste of the dance, it is a refined dance; from the point of view of the characteristics of the nation, it is Han Chinese dance. From the point of view of national characteristics, it is Han dance; from the point of view of nationality, it is Chinese dance; from the point of view of the region, it is the Oriental dance; from the point of view of the age of the performers, it is an adult dance; from the point of view of the identity of the dancers, it is a professional dance or an amateur dance ...... We are just casually so that a point, the "Red Silk Dance" belongs to more than ten kinds, if then If it is further subdivided, it can be further divided. Of course, if every dance is categorized in this way, it seems a bit cumbersome and not very necessary. However, the main purpose of this example is to show that a category of dance can be distinguished from various angles and in various ways. Secondly, it also shows that the division of the categories of dance art can only be relative, not absolute.

The principles and methods of dividing dance categories are chosen according to certain purposes. Since we are to understand more y the characteristics of the art of dance and to grasp the law of its artistic development, so as to make the creation of dance develop and grow more healthily, and to play a more positive role and influence in social life, we adopt the characteristics of dance from the objective existence of the essence of the differences between various dances, and the way they uniquely express their contents, the different methods of shaping the image of dance, and the different roles they play in social life. Characteristics, to dance category division; at the same time, but also give due consideration to our dance community has long been popular, agreed upon some of the usage.

In order to give you a clear, systematic and well-organized understanding of the categories of dance, we have adopted the following classification method.

Divided according to their role and purpose, dances can be divided into two categories: life dances and artistic dances. (Some people refer to life dance, also known as self-entertainment dance, and art dance as performance dance. According to the actual situation, life dance can include self-entertainment dance, but not entirely self-entertainment, such as religious, sacrificial dance; some life dance, such as customary dance, there are a lot of is a certain performance, so this title is not quite appropriate. According to the essence, the so-called life dance is for their own life needs and dance, artistic dance is to perform for others to watch and dance).

Life dance, including there are: customary dance, religious ritual dance, social dance, self-entertainment dance, sports dance, educational dance and other six categories.

Artistic dance, and can be divided into the following three kinds:

One, according to the different style characteristics of dance to divide, can be divided into four categories of classical dance, folk dance, modern dance and new style dance.

Two, according to the genre of dance expression and style characteristics of the division, can be divided into solo dance, duo dance, trio dance, group dance, group dance, song and dance, song and dance theater, dance theater and other eight categories.

Third, according to the method of reflecting the social reality of life and shaping the characteristics of the dance image to divide, can be divided into lyrical dance, narrative dance and dramatic dance three categories.

2. Religious and ritual dances (including witch dances)

Religious dance is a form of dance that expresses religious concepts, proclaims religious ideas and carries out religious activities. Religious dance is the supernatural, supernatural mysterious power - a visual reproduction of the gods, so that the invisible God can be perceived as a tangible body, is the personification of the mysterious power. It is a part of religious rituals. Mainly used to pray for divine blessings, remove disasters and illnesses, turn bad luck into good fortune, people and animals flourish, a good harvest, or to thank the gods for their gifts. Many regions and ethnic religious rituals in our country, there are such dance activities. Such as folk dance, dance, dance, curtain dance, Buddhism, "playing ghosts", shamanism, "jumping god" and so on are.

Sacrificial dance, is to sacrifice to the ancestors, God against a ceremonial form of dance. In the past, people used to express their nostalgia for their ancestors or hope that their ancestors and gods and Buddha's blessings on themselves. The Six Dances of the Zhou Dynasty is a famous ritual dance. The six dances are: (1) "Cloud Gate" to sacrifice to the gods of heaven; (2) "salty pool" to sacrifice to the gods of the earth; < 3) "Dashao" to sacrifice to the gods of the four directions (the sun, the moon, the stars, the sea); (4) "Daxia" to sacrifice to the mountains, spring and rivers; (5) "big wok" to sacrifice to the first batch (female ancestors); (6) "Dawu" to sacrifice to the ancestors. In addition, to date, circulating in Jiangxi, Anhui, Hubei, Hunan, Guizhou, Guangxi and other places of the "stall dance", is the ancient stall festival in the development of ceremonial dance, most of which still retains the main features of the "exorcism of ghosts and epidemics".

3. Social Dance

Social dance is the most widely circulated and mass dance activity in people's cultural life. It is a dance for people to have social interaction, promote friendship and contact feelings. Generally refers to a variety of social dance in the ball. In addition, many ethnic minorities in China, such as the "Torch Festival" of the Yi, "Lusheng Festival" of the Miao, "March 3" of the Li, "June 6" of the Buyi, "June 6" of the Hani, "June 3" of the Li, "June 6" of the Yi, "June 6" of the Hani, "June 6" of the Yi, and "June 6" of the Hani. June 6", "Bitter Zaza" of the Hani people, "Water Festival" of the Dai people and other festivals in the mass dance activities, mostly young men and women to interact with each other, free choice of spouse social activities, therefore, can also be said to be the social dance of each ethnic group. can be said to be the social dance of various ethnic groups.

4. Self-entertainment dance

Self-entertainment dance is the most simple dance in the dance activities of the people, which has no other purpose than self-entertainment. It is neither to dance to wear a dark person to see, nor to give others in the emotion and thought to infect or influence, just with the dance to express and vent their inner emotional impulse, and in the process of expressing and venting emotions, to obtain the full satisfaction of the aesthetic pleasure. Of course, sometimes this dance will not inevitably cause bystanders or the same dancer's passionate response, and this objective response, naturally, will give the dancer's own emotions to influence and stimulate, which will further stimulate the dancer's improvisational dance inspiration, so that the dance radiates a unique luster, so that the dancer can feel the greater dance aesthetic activities of pleasure and joy. Such as China's Han folk dance "Yangge" and some ethnic minority folk dance, as well as the Western "disco", "breakdancing", etc., are people's favorite self-indulgent dance.

5. Sports dance

Sports dance, because the dance is a kind of human movement art, so it has always been fitness sports role. Recently, people have further combined dance and sports to create an artistic aesthetic way to exercise the body, so that the physical and mental health development of the new varieties of sports dance. Such as a variety of fitness dance, rhythmic gymnastics, middle-aged and elderly disco, ice dance, water dance and so on. In addition, in a broad sense, China's national martial arts, symbols, simulation of a variety of animals and the image of a particular person of the Elephant Boxing, five bird play and sword dance, sword dance, etc. can be part of the sports dance. (In recent years, the social dance, is the international standard social dance, in our country popular popularity is very wide, a variety of competitions constantly, some sports departments to categorize it as sports dance, and set up a sports dance organization. Of course, the social dance can not say that there is no certain role of fitness, but its main role is not exercise, so this title is inaccurate.)

6. Educational Dance

Educational dance refers to the dance activities of schools and kindergartens for aesthetic education and the dance courses offered. It is understood that many schools in Europe and the United States attach great importance to the aesthetic education of students, in addition to music, art classes, but also set up a dance class, any student elective; some schools also have a dance department, not only to cultivate professional dance talent, but also to dance enthusiasts to teach dance culture. Therefore, they formed a specialized discipline of education dance. Some of our universities and colleges generally pay insufficient attention to aesthetic education, except for a few institutions to open a dance class, generally do not set up this course, dance-loving students can only be in the amateur art groups for dance activities. Therefore, the so-called educational dance in our country refers more to early childhood dance and children's dance. In fact, our ancestors still attach great importance to the dance education of their children. For example, about three thousand years ago in the Zhou Dynasty, the provisions of the children of the aristocracy to carry out music and dance education learning content, as well as the course of the process. Zhou Li. Musician" note: "said to teach the dance at a young age, the internal rules said: thirteen dance spoon, into the child dance elephant, twenty dance "Daxia." "Dance spoon" is generally believed to refer to the "small dance", is a literary dance, including the Zhou Dynasty, six famous ritual dance: "Block Dance", "Feather Dance", "Royal Dance", "Ni Dance", "Dry Dance", "People Dance". The "Dance of the Elephant" belongs to the category of martial dances, "the dance of stabbing and cutting when the elephant is used in battle", "probably imitating the combat movements of breaking the elephant formation. The Daxia, one of the Six Dances, is said to express and glorify the great achievements of Xia Yu in ruling the water, and was used to worship the mountains and rivers during the Zhou Dynasty. That is to say, at the age of thirteen one learns the literary dance, at the age of fifteen (as a child) the martial dance, and at the age of twenty one learns the musical dance, which glorifies the chiefs of the clans.

The reason why our country's educational dance can not be widely popularized, lies in there are many people on the aesthetic education function and role of insufficient understanding, but also lack of knowledge of dance culture, do not understand the art of dance is a kind of national culture, which is in the cultivation and beautification of human emotional thinking, moral character, cultivate people's unity and fraternity, strengthen the manners, as well as to promote the physical and mental health have the important work of the subtle transformation. I believe that, with the improvement of the cultural quality of our people, the role of art and aesthetic education to deepen the understanding of the dance education will be more and more attention, therefore, looking to the future, educational dance will have a broader development prospects.

Art dance refers to the professional and amateur dancers, through the observation of social life, experience, analysis, concentration, generalization and imagination, artistic creation, so as to produce the theme of distinctive ideas, emotionally rich, complete form, with a typical artistic image, by a small number of people on the stage or the square performances for the general public to watch the dance works. According to its different artistic characteristics, can be roughly divided into the following three categories.

Latin dance classification and introduction

As a sports dance, Latin dance first originated in Africa, by the immigrants there brought to Latin America and with the local folk dance mutual influence and fusion, and gradually formed today we often see cha-cha-cha, rumba, cowboys, samba, bullfighting, and other new types of dance.

Latin dance is a kind of dance art that focuses on the movement of shoulders, abdomen, waist and hips. Participating in the movement include the rectus abdominis, internal oblique, external oblique, erector spinae, latissimus dorsi and hundreds of other muscles. From the 1960s to the present, many researchers have done research on the physiological and psychological effects of physical dance, on average, every Latin dance, waist twisting 160-180 times, the highest heart rate of women up to 197 times / minute, the highest heart rate of men up to 210 times / minute. About energy metabolism for more than 8.5, equivalent to athletes to complete an 800-meter caloric consumption, greater than the thermal energy consumption of tennis and badminton. Fat loss effect can be imagined.

The most representative dance of Latin dance is Rumba, which is known as the "soul of Latin". People who learn Latin dance will generally take the rumba as the first dance to learn. Rumba is a dance that expresses the love story between men and women, so its music is more soft and lingering, and the movement can make the female partner fully show the feminine charm and the curves of the hips and buttocks. The movement of the female partner can fully show the softness of the woman and the curves of her hips and buttocks, and the dance is very beautiful. Another representative of the dance --- cha-cha-cha originated in Mexico, although there are many similarities with the rumba, but it is playful and cheerful, the style is very different from the rumba, the action of the dashing and handsome and full of vitality.

Latin dance attainments - a long history

Latin dance of the five dances have their own styles, the passion of the samba, cha-cha-cha lively, Rumba's graceful, bullfighting strong, cowboys funny. The difference between the styles, the main thing is to grasp the connotation.

It is the understanding of the music, and more importantly, the melody of the music. Make to learn dance, practice dance, walk dance, run dance, dance. And dancing is the highest state of the dancer. We all know that music is the soul of dance, dancers through the body to express the flow of notes, is the highest realm of dance.

The differences between Eastern and Western cultures have caused us Orientals to be often reserved and shy when dancing Latin, not daring to express ourselves physically or even to communicate with our eyes. Therefore, it is very helpful to know more about the western culture to dance "Latin dance with flavor".

The balance between partners, the balance of force, the balance of the center of gravity, the six-dimensional space: up and down, left and right, front and back. In short, balance is everywhere, and it is always present in the dance.

The first principle of Latin dance

Posture

Rumba and cha-cha-cha:

1. The two feet naturally and easily stand close together.

2. Chest out, spine straight, no shrugging.

3. Take a step to the side with either foot, straighten the other foot that supports the center of gravity, and shift all your weight onto it so that the pelvis can move to the side, and so that you feel the weight is on the heel of the supporting foot, with the knee locked back. The amount of pelvic movement should be such that it does not affect the posture of the upper body.

Semba and Jie:

1. Stand with your feet naturally and easily together.

2. Hold your chest out, straighten your back, and don't shrug your shoulders.

3. Take a step outward with either foot, straighten the other foot that supports the center of gravity, and shift all your weight onto it so that the weight is shifted forward onto the forefoot while the heel remains off the floor, and the knee of the supporting foot is not locked back. Exceptions are made for certain steps, such as the split rock step, the backward retraction step and the rolled pleat step in the Samba, and the chicken walk in the Jet.

Since there is no pelvic or hip movement in Spanish bullfighting, its posture differs from that of the various Latin dances mentioned above in the following ways:

1. The pelvic bones are slightly tilted forward.

2. The weight is borne very evenly by both feet.

3. When the foot is straight, the knee must not buckle backward. There is one exception, and that is the Spanish dance position.

Orientation

Orientation under the chart is used to illustrate the direction in which the dancer's body is facing or backing in the studio. When we lead with our shoulders (sideways), it is important that the orientation is correct.

The rumba, cha-cha-cha and jig are non-forward dances, while the samba and Spanish bullfight are forward dances.

Turning

The feet are never parallel in Latin dance, except when the feet are together. Such a foot turn is mostly an outward turn, but it is a "passive turn" or a responsive movement of the foot that carries all or part of the weight of the foot. In dancing, the amount of foot rotation is different from the amount of upper body rotation. Typical examples are the 2nd step of the Samba Sweep Step, the inhibited forward step in the Rumba and Cha Cha, and all the backward steps in the Rumba and Cha Cha.

So when a step is danced with its foot-driven center of gravity facing a different direction than its body, we are looking at the amount of turn of its upper body, not its feet.

(Note 1) In the rumba and cha-cha-cha, the foot that drives the center of gravity will have an outward turn of about 116 turns at the rate of the backward step itself. This rotation, caused by the need to stabilize the center of gravity, is called "passive rotation.

Now there are three kinds of Latin Dance Examinations

Bronze Cha Cha and Rumba

Silver Bronze and Cowboy

Gold Silver and Samba, Bullfighting

Modern Dance Knowledge

Tango

[Introduction]

Tango is a well known dance form, which is famous all over the world as the national treasure of Argentina. To be precise, the original form of tango originated from Spain and Africa, and then fused with the local dance culture in the land of Argentina and developed into a new dance form - Argentine tango. It is difficult to see the original form of tango in the newly formed tango, which has been baptized in the immigrant continent of Argentina, and has completely created a new form of tango dance.

Now people talk about tango, as if it is a kind of wearing evening dresses and elegant dance culture, but do not know that the beginning of the formation of the tango is the authentic dance of the lower classes. In the 1880s, Buenos Aires was flooded with immigrants from Europe and Africa, who were called "strangers on a strange continent". With a deep, rootless sense of wanderlust, they and the seafarers who were always on the move, sank into the taverns and dance halls of the common neighborhoods, drowning their sorrows in alcohol and entertainment. It was in these bars and dance halls that tango music and dance were born. At the beginning of the 20th century, as Argentine society stabilized and the status of the lower classes improved, tango became more and more accepted and conquered the world with its unique charm.

There are many other distinctive dance cultures in Latin America, such as the soft and seductive rumba of Cuba and the passionate samba of Brazil. But tango is different from them all, tango's indulgence is a quiet inner rather than a passionate catharsis. This is because in the tango people are infused with a philosophical sadness, this sadness in the foreign land in the feelings of travelers, there are the fate of the hardships, but also on the life of the painful thinking. This kind of sadness in the early formation of tango is y rooted in it, people turn the sadness into a sincere emotion unreservedly embodied in the tango, so that the tango has a kind of unspeakable moving and a kind of eternal meaning. Some people say that tango is a kind of dance, but also a culture, or a way of life.

Snip: Legend has it that Argentinian men dance tango with their partners wearing short swords at the waist to prevent interference from rivals, thus forming a serious facial expression, twisting the body and turning the head quickly, and from time to time looking left and right characteristics. There is also a small story, said a seaman, and his girlfriend close companion, but always have to be separated for a period of time at sea. One day when he returned from the sea, they met again after a long time and danced the tango happily. As they danced, the seaman realized that his girlfriend was always turning her head, so he turned around and realized that she was looking at his new partner, and was suddenly jealous. So then came the male dancer who quickly turned his head to supervise his partner's movements, and for fear of being caught, just turned his head and reverted right back. And the clever female dancers learn to turn their heads to see if their partner has noticed anything about them. Also, there are occasional pauses in the tango. This is a remnant of the early bulky costumes and boots with spurs that were not easy to move, tango is also known as "the dance of the momentary pause". The tunes of Argentine tango are mostly sad and melancholic, with many syncopated rhythms. The dance has a new structure and movement based on the absorption of foreign dances. The male and female dancers start, embrace each other, and then stop to show their body movements. With the movement of the lower legs as the main focus, the male and female dancers dance a series of dazzling steps with skillful coordination. Their faces are calm and engaged, and they are in perfect sync, dancing as if they were telling stories about their lives. Emotions were held within, and movements were well organized. The two men dominated, twisting and turning their heads quickly, and the women often leaned back briefly to emphasize their staccato steps.

It shows a high degree of skill and a great deal of charm and fun.

Waltz

[Introduction]

Waltz swing technique

Swing action and turning action can not be separated, the coexistence of the two is a kind of engine and tires relationship, no turning action, swing action will appear hard and unbalanced, the completion of the appearance of the swing, to be through the center of the body, as well as the legs, hips, shoulders and arms. The movement of the center of the body, the legs, the hips, and the shoulders and arms are used to achieve the technique of time movement to complete the light and elegant dance with power.

The logic of dancers will think that the upper body is not moving is a good phenomenon, but the limbs are free, and the cooperation and coordination between dance partners can not be bound, the body can make the limbs and muscles can produce a relaxation effect, so before swinging must be done to prepare for the body to turn movements; knees bent loosely, from the legs above the body will be a little forward to support the shoulders relaxation and flat, the back and waist a little bit of tight, the body The weight of the body is placed on the palms of the hands.

After you start to move, the turn referred to in the steps is the turn between the feet, not the turn of the body, and special attention must be paid to this point, especially for women, who are almost exclusively moving forward and backward, with the turn being done by the men.

The waltz is a 3-beat dance. It is originally a kind of European folk dance, part of which spread to Britain, after finishing standardized into the British Waltz, that is, the Waltz, that is, we are accustomed to call the slow three; the other part of the spread to the middle of Europe, and still maintains the warmth and simplicity of the folk dance, after finishing standardized into the Viennese Waltz, that is, what we often say the Vienna Waltz.

That's basically it. I hope it will be adopted
