In the dance, slow three is one of the most basic dances, which is the basis of other dances. This is because the techniques used in other dances are all applied in slow three. The following is some information I have compiled about the standard ballroom dancing slow three for your reference.

slow three:

slow three belongs to three steps. Three steps, as the name implies, are three beats per bar. Its stress is in the first beat, the last two beats are weak, and the rhythm is "strong, weak and weak".

Usually, in ballroom dancing, after a man invites a female partner, he poses, and the male partner advances his left foot and the female partner retreats his right foot. So in slow three, for men, the stress in the first bar is on his left foot, and the stress in the second bar is changed to his right foot. From now on, the stress will alternate between the left and right feet. The same is true for female dancers. The stress in the first bar is on the right foot, and the stress in the second bar is changed to the left foot, and then it is rotated. This is very different from Slow Four.

The simplest dance step in slow three is the straight step. Beginners often think it is dancing, so they don't know where to put their feet. In fact, it's similar to walking, only with an understanding of music. For slow three, we say that the first beat, that is, the re-beat, is bigger, the second and third beats are weak, and the steps are adjusted. Men should stretch their feet straight forward. Some beginners are afraid of stepping on their female companions' feet and walking sideways, which is not in line with slow three's jumping method and looks ugly. In fact, as long as both men and women follow the rhythm of music and move forward or backward according to their roles, they will not step on each other's feet.

The basic step of slow three step in ballroom dancing is actually very simple. All patterns are evolved from the basic step. Only by mastering the basic step can we master more patterns better. Of course, these are all on paper. We should learn more from the "dancing" masters, so as to improve our dancing skills.

Ways for beginners of ballroom dancing to improve their physical flexibility:

First, the embodiment of good flexibility

Flexibility is a basic condition as long as it is related to physical movement. It is a function of the body, and it is the elasticity of ligaments, the tension of muscles, and the possibility of structural loosening between articular bones. It should be said that the more flexible something is, the greater its possibility and availability, and its essence is like vitality and youth. Therefore, good flexibility is of course very beneficial to dance. From the dance phenomenon, good flexibility is reflected in two aspects:

First, good flexibility will make the body have a large and beautiful dance, which will be presented through the body shape. Is it transcendence? Human body limit? Class's actions. Of course, the functions of jujitsu and rhythmic gymnastics in acrobatics are more important and fully reflected.

second, flexibility can also be regarded as very internal in sports. It may not be too prominent in appearance, but it is harmful to the human body? Coordination? Sex plays an important role. Many people dance well, which is closely related to the deep coordination of the whole body. This is also a deeper understanding of flexibility. Another example: hurdles in sports. Judging from the whole hurdle movement, it seems that it has little to do with flexibility, that is, the appearance of the big dance is not prominent and there is no direct contradiction on the surface. However, after a little analysis, it is not difficult to conclude that flexibility plays a vital coordinating role in the whole process.

Second, how to improve the flexibility of the body-softness

A. leg press: leg press can be divided into three methods: positive pressure, lateral pressure and back pressure. The main purpose is to lengthen the muscles and ligaments of the legs and increase the range of motion of the hip joint through it.

The method is as follows:

Positive pressure: Facing a support, lift the front legs and place them on the support to keep the legs straight; The hind legs support the body's center of gravity, the toes are kept in a straight line with the front feet, the legs are straight and relaxed, the hands are folded and placed on the front knees, and the upper body is relaxed and upright (see Figure 1); Then the body tries to vibrate downward until the lower jaw can touch the toes.

lateral pressure: facing a support, lift the front legs and place them on the support to keep the legs straight; The hind legs support the body's center of gravity, and the toes are 9? The heel is parallel to the front foot, the legs are straight and relaxed, and the body vibrates sideways to the front toe; Press until the side and legs are together to practice in place.

back pressure: with your back to a support, put one foot back on the support, and then the upper body tries to vibrate backwards.

leg press's requirements: keep the correct posture, relax the whole body when vibrating, meditate on relaxation and relaxation in your mind, and count; After practicing a posture, it is best to keep the posture of vibration and pressure in place for about 1 seconds; Leg press should follow the principle of gradual progress. It doesn't matter if you don't press it too low at the beginning, just take your time and don't rush for success.

B. Split: Split is an advanced stage of flexibility training, which is divided into two methods: horizontal split and vertical split.

vertical split: the legs are separated into a figure, supported on the ground with both hands, so that the upper body is upright, and then the body is vibrated downward, until the legs are separated into a line and sitting underground is qualified.

transverse split: the legs are separated into a straight line, and the hands are supported in front of the body to make the upper body upright, and then the body is vibrated downwards until the legs are separated into a line and sit under the ground.

requirements for cheating: you should do it step by step, and you should never rush for success, otherwise it will easily hurt your health; When practicing, you must relax your limbs. Only when you relax your limbs can you pull the ligaments apart.

Precautions for flexibility exercise:

1. The degree of flexibility quality development is based on the completion of various technical requirements, and it is not necessary to reach the maximum level. For children, step-by-step practice will be better, and they can also avoid injuries caused by excessive flexibility training.

2. Handle the relationship between flexibility and strength. Flexibility emphasizes muscle elasticity and relaxation, while strength training will lead to muscle stiffness and tension. For teenagers, the frequency of flexibility training should be higher than strength training.

3. Coordinate the strength of stretching force, repetition times, practice time and other related factors, and avoid overexertion.

4. Use more active flexibility training methods and less passive flexibility training methods to reduce the pain of children in flexibility training.

5. Improve the flexibility regularly for a long time.

6. Pay attention to the relationship between flexibility and temperature, time and fatigue. For example, the training methods in winter and summer should be adjusted, because the flexibility of the human body will weaken with the decrease of temperature, and the flexibility of the body will also weaken when it is tired.
