Es ist bemerkenswert, wie sehr klare Absicht beeinflusst sowohl die Erfahrung von Blei / zu folgen und anderer Erfahrungen, wie schön du als Tänzer sind. Wenn wir sagen, klare Absicht, meinen wir zwei Dinge:

  1. 1. Sie haben bereits beschlossen, die Sie nehmen Schritt.
  2. 2. Ihr Körper weiß genau, wie Sie diesen Schritt ausführen.

In einer nahe gelegenen Stadt, gibt es ein recht häufiges Autoaufkleber, der ", betet für mich, ich fahre Apache Trail", sagt. Und was es spricht, ist die Inzidenz von Menschen in dieser Stadt, die wirklich nicht wissen, was sie tun werden (während der Fahrt), bis sie finden sich es zu tun. Sie werden in eine Richtung beginnen und dann, in der Mitte, dass, werden sie eine andere Vorstellung zu bekommen und schalten Sie einmal und ändern Sie dann in diesem Zug, so dass es aussieht wie ihre Autos sind einfach spazieren gehen.

Erscheinen, um die Tanzfläche zu wandern ist wirklich suboptimal. Und dasselbe gilt in jedem Schritt.

  • Wenn Sie sich zu einer Seiten Schritt zu buchen, wissen, was motiviert die Erweiterung Ihrer Bein aus, wie Sie Ihr Gewicht zu übertragen und wie Sie zu stoppen, wenn die Bewegung abgeschlossen ist.
  • Wählen Sie eine einfache Bewegung und denken über jedes kleine Element, das in die es geht.
  • Wenn Sie Schritt Seite, sehen Sie Ihre Waden fühlen, Ihre unteren Rücken, Ihren Hintern? Haben Sie die Muskeln Eingriff fühlen? Haben Sie es überall das Gefühl in den Beinen? Sind Sie klar über die Richtung?
  • Gibt es in Ihrem Geist sagen: "Ich werde Seite", aber, wenn Sie an Ihrem Fuß sehen, sind Sie zu finden Sie 10 Grad off?
  • Wenn Sie nicht wissen, wohin du gehst, könnten Sie landen irgendwo anders. --Yogi Berra
  • Wie funktioniert die umarmen Einfluss auf die Seiten Schritt? Haben Sie es in Ihren Rücken und Ihre Arme fühlen?

(Paraphrasiert von wikipedia): Piazzollas Tango war verschieden von der traditionellen Tango in seinem Einbau von Elementen des Jazz, die Nutzung von erweiterten Harmonien und Dissonanzen, seine Verwendung des Kontrapunkts, und seine Unternehmungen zu erweiterten Kompositionsformen. Als argentinischer Psychoanalytiker Carlos Kuri hat darauf hingewiesen, Piazzollas Fusion von Tango mit dieser Vielzahl weiterer erkennbarer westliche Musikelemente war so erfolgreich, dass es einen neuen, individuellen Stil transzendiert diese Einflüsse produziert.

00:05
Now, this is, actually, a chapter that I've been looking forward to.
00:08
And that's because, not that we're nuts about performing, although we like it, but, rather, that
00:13
When you talk about good performers, that becomes sort of very purely about great dance and great technique.
00:19
Because the difference between "Meh" and "Wow" is not what they do, actually. It's how they do it. Right? It's all this technique.
00:28
So, what we're going to do is have a case study. We have a little bit of choreography.
00:32
And, originally, I was going to have Malakai and Jessica do this badly,
00:35
And then we'd evolve it, until it was incredibly wonderful, so you could see the difference.
00:39
But they couldn't do it badly enough. They can only do it well.
00:42
So, I'm going to do it badly, and they're going to do it well, and then you'll see the evolution.
00:46
Come in, come in.
00:50
And so, I'll be, I guess, the leader first. And I'm going to be a bad leader, and you can watch how that changes.
00:56
So, here's the bad leader. Back up, back up.
00:59
So, we're here. And this isn't real bad, I'm going to try not to exaggerate. It's hard not to exaggerate.
01:27
And a lot of people looking at that, would say, "What's wrong with that? That looked perfectly nice."
01:30
And, maybe, it looked perfectly nice, but the point is it wasn't smashingly magnificent.
01:35
So, if we do the same thing... And I'm just going to pause, at the beginning, I just walked in.
01:42
Which is not particularly useful. It doesn't have presence, or activity in your body.
01:47
So, instead, you make your body alive. You grow like 4 inches, depending on how much you slump.
01:54
You go to your partner. The air becomes thick, and you take a step.
02:02
Jessica is like, "Wow, David, that was a big step!"
02:05
And it's a very different effect. Right? You step side, and on this lunge, instead of doing this,
02:11
Which is mini me. I'm letting my butt go back. I'm letting my head jut forward. I'm invading her space.
02:16
Instead, we're long and tall.
02:20
And I keep my spine vertical, and I go into the lunge. And it's much better.
02:24
Instead of being here, when I take her back, it wraps around, and I stay to her.
02:30
Right? In the wrap, instead of just being here, which is sort of "Blah",
02:36
Do the wrap again.
02:39
It's here. Which is very active.
02:44
Right, so there's this idea, that I want you to lengthen your body in all directions.
02:48
I want you to... Have your core be this fiery engine that emanates out to your extremities. And then you move.
02:58
And, likewise, it's true not just for leaders, but for ladies too.
03:01
So, if I'm the follower, poor Malakai now, this is what you might do, right?
03:08
And he's beautiful, and I'm, "Eh, OK". But we want more than OK.
03:20
And, literally, people do it like this.
03:28
And he was doing it really well, and I was doing it really badly.
03:32
So, let's take that first step. Once again, I want you to emanate in all directions. You take this first step towards each other.
03:44
You see a lot of energy there. On this lunge, you'll notice that I keep the body very vertical, before I let my butt tilt back.
03:51
I really point with a toe, before I let it flex. But really notice the energy and the verticality in the body.
03:57
Even when he turns me, I'm keeping that line of the body.
04:02
As he pulls me up, with abs in, I let that relate to the lift of the leg.
04:09
Thank you, very nice.
04:11
So, if you watch the good. Give it a go, guys.
04:47
So, we'll end with this thought: when you think about performing, it's not about what you do.
04:53
Because you can do anything, and it will look bad. And you can do anything, and it will look good.
04:57
Right? So it's about looking good and bad. Or bad. And we choose good.
05:02
Instead of, "Oh, I can do all this cool stuff".
05:04
I mean, we want you to learn the cool stuff too. And there are lots of chapters on cool stuff.
05:08
But, right now, this chapter is about the idea that you elongate the body, you energize.
05:13
You sort of make the energy that comes from your core, emanate, like an engine, outwards.
05:18
You stay towards your partner. You keep this going.
05:21
And, if the body alignment is right, then... And texture's thick, we'll also have a chapter about that.
05:26
Then it makes the performance work. And otherwise, who cares what you do it.
