1, enhance the rhythm of music and improve the coordination ability of the whole body.
The introduction course of ballet is often organized in the form of "small music body training" to enhance its interest and encourage children to play different roles according to different storylines. Moreover, different imitation training can be arranged in ballet practice, which not only makes students feel cheerful and lively atmosphere, but also improves the coordination ability of muscles and bones from various dynamic balances.
2, comb and flexible muscle lines and trends, shape tall and straight posture, improve bad posture.
Ballet practice pays more attention to the use of body balance and the universality of movements. If you can correctly grasp the essentials of action, it will not only help the growth of children's bones, but also stretch the ligaments of limbs, make the muscles slender and firm, and make the children's body develop in the direction of "long hands, long legs and long neck", which will help correct the children's hunchback, splayed feet, scoliosis and bad chest and abdomen.
3. Improve the ability of artistic appreciation and artistic temperament.
In the ballet course, teachers will arrange for children to experience the subtleties of world-famous ballet dance music according to their age characteristics, guide children to understand the role emotion and artistic atmosphere, and cultivate their light and elegant artistic temperament.
4, increase toughness and vital capacity, enhance physical fitness and eliminate puffiness.
Ballet practice is difficult and challenging for every child, especially after jumping practice and rotating practice, the amount of exercise increases obviously, which has the functions of expanding vital capacity, improving jumping ability and reducing respiratory infection rate. Aerobic exercise with high energy consumption (all jumping exercises, including small jump, middle jump and big jump, are aerobic exercises) has more courage and skills to consume fat and learn to communicate with people.
5. Cultivate children's good habit of perseverance and seriousness.
Ballet is a rigorous art, which requires high action rate and is also a challenge for students. Only by overcoming difficulties and studying hard can students meet the requirements of various dance movements and combinations. In pole vault practice, children should also learn to control an action to stay still for a short time, so as to train their concentration and high self-control ability.
Ballet practice includes communication between teachers and students at any time and anywhere, as well as communication between students of the same age. In order to arrange new dance sketches, dance rhythms and combinations, children must cooperate closely and obey the setting, thus improving students' spirit of unity and cooperation.
Myth 1 practicing ballet will produce "splayed feet"
On the contrary, because the basic training of ballet requires "opening, stretching and straightness", dancing can correct the internal splayed feet (commonly known as "cockfighting feet"). After learning ballet, some children will walk with a little more personality, because they always remember the preparatory movements of ballet. This is true, but it is not obvious and will not affect the child's image. Some parents will compare ballerinas with students, which is another misunderstanding. Because ballet professionals practice more than 6 hours a day, while our ballet students practice less than 3 hours a week, this worry is unnecessary.
Myth 2: Practicing ballet will make children grow taller.
How tall a child can grow is related to the time when the bones are closed. In other words, the later the cartilage on both sides of the joint closes into hard bone, the higher the child grows. In ballet practice, most movements are related to stretching children's ligaments and shaping children's muscles, and the pressure on children's bone development is extremely limited. And generally, children aged 4-6 don't arrange toe practice. Our ballet teaching must begin with the four-level ballet course. At this time, the child is already 9 years old, which will never lead to the child growing taller. On the contrary, because children who practice ballet have good posture, they will look slimmer than their actual height, so they are obviously taller than their peers. Now many parents in Class 4 often tell me that they are proud to take their children out. Because there is a big difference between children who learn ballet and those who don't. I feel that the temperament of children is much better and more noble than that of children who have never studied ballet. This has also been recognized by other parents who have never studied ballet. At the same time, this is one of the reasons why the turnover rate of our ballet students from grade 4 or above is quite low, because parents see the long-term significance of learning ballet.
Myth 3: Practicing ballet will make children slim down.
Don't lose weight by simple ballet exercises. Because the effect that dancing can achieve is partial weight loss, such as losing weight in waist, abdomen and shoulders, it is good to think that dancing can make children lose weight completely, but it can only be achieved through diet and persistent practice.
In particular, why do teachers emphasize the reason of long legs when choosing the "good seedlings" of ballet? Only when the lower body is longer than the upper body can the legs still look slender and more beautiful after growing muscles.
It is better to practice when you are 5 years old, and your body is just soft.
