🧏🏻♀️Restriction in Latin dance with inappropriate cue
🧚🏻♂️Ballet dance often be seen as one of the best training for latin dancer due to its systematic and it does able to build tremendous muscle control , and certain flexibility, coordination for dancers need
However the dance mechanics or the kinetic chain required during movement between two dance are actually poles apart so while we putting those cue of usage from ballet into Latin American dance , it will not only inhibit whether the range of motion or the strength a dancer suppose to produce it will also causing different kind of sport /joint injury specially for the lower limbs to dancer.😮
🧠For example, Ballet dancer required to present and maintain both legs and hips in extreme turn out position all times which required strong contraction from the glute muscle (Hip external rotation muscles) and it has to keep the pelvic , rib cage in neutral position and there should have no obvious rotation in between
💃🏻However in Latin American Dance itself , the signature Cuban action required to create figure 8 motion from the hip area which actually executed by unilateral rib cage compression to create the level change and the relative rotation on the pelvic .
At the same time, both legs required to swapping between the internal and external rotation to release the range of motion for the hip area
Although Ballet Dance as very rich of historical and systematic training platform but dancer will feel restricted with rotation which Latin dance mainly required while we :
🥵Straightening the spine
🥵Close the ribs
🥵Tail bone in
🥵Maintain the abs solid
🥵Maintain Glutes tight
🥵Chest up
🥵Pushing the knee backward
As all above cue are putting our body in a saggital plane movement bias instead of the transverse plane (rotational movement) it has to be done in Latin Dance
And we gonna dive into some more details with following article to share with you.
