The basic essentials that beginners must master when starting jazz dance.
The rhythm of all heads must be as big as possible. Head strength training must throw all the hair up completely, and the fixed point should be clean and refreshing, not sloppy.
02
Arm training must be straight, fast and powerful! Tighten all the arm muscles, including the forearm and fingers, maintain the strength of the arm and tighten your body. Keep still when I touch you or push you casually. No matter what state your fingers are in, you must feel infinitely stretched, which proves that your fingers and body are tightened in place.
03
Ligament training is a link that many people have been improving. When pressing, keep your legs straight and keep your body close to your legs as much as possible. The more sour the feeling, the more effective it is, and so is the stretching of the arm. You can do ligament stretching in bed after you go back, which is very helpful for girls.
04
Chest, waist and buttocks, we must pay attention to the correctness of each posture when we turn the rhythm. Have you tried your best to score the top left and right points? Or did you miss something? It is not a perfect circle, but an ellipse. It's strange to connect them? These questions are to be repeatedly scrutinized in front of the mirror and communicated with the teacher. Hips I emphasize the strength of everyone, that is, the control of the hips. This is very simple, that is, focus all your attention on your hips, control your hips with your thighs, and use the opposite force to have a key effect on your movements. The rhythm of the chest will also help.
05
The taboo of leg movement, including front and back hip movement, is that the legs are too close together, the ligaments are not opened, and then the leg muscles are not tightened. The effect is that the movements are soft and there is no strength at all.

Understanding and deeper understanding of dance. In other words, after you hear music, all the emotional organs should be put into the state and temperament. Happy, soothing, passionate, cold, cute, sexy, arrogant, warm, chic, dreamy ... all phrases related to this music should be screened out immediately and integrated into your senses. Every piece of music has a different feeling, so we must jump out of different feelings and avoid similarities. If you have lyrics, try to understand the meaning and realm that the singer wants to express. Dance really needs harmony and quality in order to make a qualitative change. Maybe at some point you will have a new feeling.

There are three essential factors in the expression of music: mind, body and expression.
The mind is to have your own ideas, including the understanding of music, which is the most basic weapon for you to surpass others. Your body is your best weapon to control the rhythm. It is enough to express your basic skills and your original body language to step on those unexpected rhythms. A woman's body is a language, and her expression is the most intuitive infection tool. You should know how to control your expression and enrich your emotions.
Raise your voice and music.
This realm is relatively high, and only those who perform very well in the first two points can do it. That is, you should have enough confidence to lead and drive the audience into your own music world. Basic skills are solid, you have your own unique ideas, you have an understanding of music that ordinary people can't reach, your body language is better than others, and the most important thing is that you are born with the ability to express music.
