What are the requirements for dancing jazz well?

-Cardiopulmonary endurance

Generally, the time of an action combination in jazz dance is not very long, but the rest time between combinations is often very short. Therefore, if learners have good cardio-pulmonary endurance, they will generally maintain good dance skills after repeated movements for many times, so as not to get tired prematurely.

-Muscle strength and endurance

Jazz dance has many quick and instantaneous movements, so basic muscle strength is necessary. In addition, because learning to dance often needs to practice the same movement many times, the requirements for muscle endurance are relatively high. In particular, the endurance of lower limb muscles must be well exercised, otherwise it is easy to cause damage to knees, ankles, hip joints and nearby muscles. Jazz dancers also strengthen their muscles through other auxiliary exercises (such as water exercises and yoga training).

-dexterity

In jazz dance, different directions and different levels of movements are often used to increase the sense of excitement and entertainment, so dancers must be dexterous and skilled, and the angle should be accurate and rapid when turning.

-softness

No matter what kind of dance you dance, if you want to dance beautifully, your body must be soft, otherwise you can't give full play to the beauty of lines, and jazz dance is no exception. Be sure to pay attention to the stretching action of warm-up. Before the body muscles are fully warmed up, it is not appropriate to stretch in the form of elastic vibration, otherwise it will be counterproductive and strain the muscles. Static stretching is safer, but it also requires patience.

-Balance force

The ability of dynamic balance is often more widely used in jazz dance than static balance, that is to say, dancers must clearly shift the focus of dance steps, in addition, they must skillfully position themselves with their eyes to help them keep balance when turning around.

-Coordination

Coordination is very important in jazz dance. In addition to the coordination of hands and feet, there is also the coordination of head, trunk and limbs. In addition, in jazz dance, different parts of the body dance at different rhythms at the same time, which is really a great test for the dancers' coordination ability. For beginners, it is appropriate to practice the movements of different parts of the body first and then continue to cooperate with the required movements, so that the sense of success will be higher.

-Body combination

Most excellent jazz dancers are muscular, but generally have less body fat. This makes their bodies show obvious muscle stripes, which makes them feel more energetic and powerful when dancing. The lower fat content also prevents the dancer from bearing unnecessary weight, making the dance action more chic and light.

Although learning jazz dance can also be a way to lose weight, it is suitable for overweight beginners to lose weight in other ways first, otherwise it will cause a certain crisis to the health of muscles and joints.
