Nowadays, many parents want to send their children to dance lessons. They do not want their children to become excellent dancers, but they just want their children to practice their body shape and temperament and cultivate their interests. However, various reliable or unreliable news makes parents hesitate: only children with good body shape can dance; learning to dance will make children have "splayed feet" and will not grow taller; learning to dance is not good for children's skeletal development. good. Put on a thin gauze skirt, stand on tiptoes, and dance like a swan... Many girls have had such a "swan dream" when they were young! It should be pointed out in particular that children with particularly thick thighs are not suitable for losing weight through dancing. Because when doing basic training, especially basic ballet training, the strength is in the legs and feet, which will make the legs very strong, and to a certain extent, the legs will look thicker. This is why ballet dancers must have very slender legs. This can ensure that the legs will still look slender and beautiful after growing muscles. What do parents need to do? Every time a child learns something, his or her parents are always there to follow. Tutoring and coaching are all the parents' responsibilities. Is it the same when it comes to learning to dance? Parents don’t need to “dance with you”. As long as the child is allowed to freely develop his interests, it is enough to supervise the child to practice by himself at home. Do not stare at him as closely as you would when tutoring your child to learn English and mathematics. (Teacher Zhu told me a story: One time when she was in class, she asked the children to press their legs on the barre. A father found out about it and asked his children to press their legs every day after he returned. Sometimes he even went into battle and pressed his children's legs desperately. , the child doesn’t even know it hurts. The child is frightened and will never come to learn dance again.) If parents really want to do something for their children to learn dance, then find a good teacher for their children! This is very important. Alert: How to avoid accidental injuries? Recently, an incident occurred in a children's palace where a girl fell during dance practice and was paralyzed in the lower body. So, how can teachers, parents and children avoid accidental injuries in the process of learning dance? I think teachers, parents and children all need to be more vigilant about this. For teachers, in addition to using scientific teaching methods, they must also consider the child's tolerance, gradually advance, and let the child do the actions within his ability, and do not let the child learn some difficult technical actions prematurely. If you need to let your child learn some difficult movements, you must provide one-on-one tutoring to your child. If these actions require children to review at home, then the correct operation method should be told to the parents and demonstrated to them completely so that they can master it. For parents, they should carefully watch how the teacher helps their children complete these movements. Only after mastering the correct methods can they help their children practice at home. If you are not sure, simply don’t let your child practice at home. At the same time, teachers and parents should warn children that when learning some more difficult movements, such as somersaults, they must not practice alone and must be supervised by an adult.
