Learn basic ballet skills 1. The relationship between basic ballet skills and artistic expression

Ballet is an expressive art that relies on body movements to convey artistic expression. Therefore, artistic expression is indispensable in ballet performances. elements. The learning of ballet, like the learning of other knowledge, needs to proceed from the shallower to the deeper and step by step. Therefore, basic skills are the cornerstone of ballet learning. Only with solid basic skills can you learn more advanced performance skills. Ballet teaching requirements are not only strict, but also meticulous. Starting from the actor's stance, hand positions, and foot positions, step by step transition from simple movements to continuous movements, coupled with difficult technical movements, basically forms a short dance. Of course, dance movements are a tool for artistic communication, which are relatively external and are the basic skills that beginners should master. As the learning time and depth increase, the direction of dance learning should shift to increasing artistic expression, from superficial movements to the expression of inner emotions. A real dance should highly integrate basic movements, inner emotions and dance music. Every movement should be able to be relaxed and relaxed with every breath. Dance relies on body movements to convey art, and each dance reflects a culture behind the dance. Ballet originated in Russia and matured in France. It was initially just a dance among court nobles. Therefore, all ballet dancers hold their heads high, look noble, have dignified appearance, and exude an aristocratic atmosphere in their movements. Exquisite ballet performance is a combination of technology and art. Therefore, dance without artistic expression is just mechanical movements. Without the support of basic technology, it is difficult to express art no matter how good it is.

Basic skills of learning ballet 2: Understand basic skills training and artistic expression development

Any art learning can be divided into basics and improvements, and ballet learning is no exception. In the primary stage, ballet dancers mainly learn basic skills. Only with solid basic skills can they learn higher dance skills. If the basic skills are not solid, they will be forced to learn more difficult dance skills. It will be difficult or even impossible for learners to accept higher-intensity learning. In the initial stage of learning, the cultivation of artistic expression is placed in a secondary position, interspersed with the process of learners' basic skills practice, to cultivate artistic feelings, adjust the boringness of basic skills training, and relieve learners' nervousness and pressure. In the improvement stage of ballet learning, the requirements for basic skills cannot be relaxed. On this basis, the difficulty of the movements should be increased, and at the same time, the expressive power of dance art should be learned. At the higher stage of dance learning, learners not only need to show dance movements, but also learn how to show dance movements with more charm, and how to organically combine dance movements with music, breathing, and personal emotional experiences. What ballet dancers show to the audience on the stage is the most perfect performance, allowing the audience to appreciate the graceful movements and at the same time be shocked in their hearts. Ballet dancers must perfectly combine movement, charm and music. These are the training that learners need to undergo in the higher stages of ballet learning.

More importantly, ballet learning cannot separate basic skills training and artistic expression cultivation. The two are complementary and inseparable. In the process of learning, the focus of cultivating basic skills and artistic expression is different according to different stages and different students' situations. It is by no means a single cultivation of basic skills or artistic expression.

Basic Skills of Learning Ballet 3 Correctly Grasp the Artistic Expression of Ballet

Dance is both a physical art and a visual art. How to express this kind of art, I think the key issue is to solve the two parts-the head and the hands. Generally speaking, in the lower education stage, the leader's hand is required to perform movements. The student's hand and foot positions must be placed in the positions required by the teacher, so that the student's muscles have a certain ability to reflect the basic hand and foot positions. At the advanced stage of study, when students have control over their heads and hands, they will move from the kingdom of necessity to the kingdom of freedom. The teacher should give sufficient guidance in terms of expression, so that the students' heads and hands can move freely in accurate positions. In addition, with the gradual improvement of students' musical literacy and performance awareness, the movements of the students' heads and hands should be flesh-and-blood and meaningful. Emotions and temperament. In expressing emotions and essence, energy and spirit, you can't see the rigidity of the precise positioning of hands and feet, and the rigidity of moving according to the trajectory. You can only feel the stretch and grace of ballet dance. Here, the teacher's guidance is extremely important. It is necessary to liberate students from the relatively rigid movements in the early stage, sublimate them to a comfortable and accurate position, move according to the track, combine with music and breathing, and achieve the perfect ideal state.

In practice, we have realized that enhancing the expressiveness of the head is inseparable from the eyes. The eyes are the windows of the soul, which can not only reflect the emotions of the character, but also communicate with the audience. As soon as an actor appears on the stage, the audience can clearly distinguish the completion of several actions. His skills and cultivation leave obvious marks on his hands, eyes, body, method and steps. Strengthening the expressive power of the head can accurately portray the dance image to be expressed. The hand here refers to the collective name of the arm. It not only imitates the image of various lives, but also embodies the special expression of pantomime. It is the embodiment of communication and emotion between people. Entering the artistic sublimation stage of dance, teachers should inspire students' performance awareness in artistic guidance, and embody a temperament and mental outlook through body language such as eyes, gestures, and foot positions.

Students are required to overcome the weirdness, rigidity and traces of deliberate imitation in the beginner stage, teach students the breathing method of the arms, liberate the body, and embody the artistic value of dance in an unrestrained state. If at this stage, the head is not focused, If the requirements for hand coordination are not paid attention to, and the requirements for expressiveness are not paid attention to, the positions of students' heads, hands and feet will be messed up and they will not be coordinated, and their movements will not have energy, energy and spirit. As a teacher, the purpose of teaching will not be achieved. . Teachers must not only meet the needs of teaching students' basic skills, but also have the ability and quality to improve students' dance artistic accomplishment and enhance students' artistic expression.

In short, ballet is an elegant art. The short performance of ballet dancers on the stage brings perfect visual enjoyment to the audience. However, as the saying goes, "One minute on stage, ten years off stage", ballet learning requires a lot of time and sweat, as well as strength, courage and perseverance. In the process of learning ballet, you must develop solid basic skills so that you can learn ballet more deeply. At the same time, with technical support, you need to enhance the artistic expression of ballet. Only by integrating skills into ballet can you show ballet. Only the most perfect side can bring a shocking performance to the audience.
