Study Notes
Dance and Its Historical Context
- Dance is a form of body movement expressing unity and strength, encompassing varied movements like jumping, turning, and extending limbs.
- In Ancient Egypt, dance was depicted in wall paintings and hieroglyphs, evolving to be intertwined with worship through the Catholic Church.
- The Renaissance Era saw a decline of religious domination in artistic expressions, allowing the rise of court dances and ballet in Italy and France.
Ancient Civilizations and Dance
- Greece highly valued dance, integrating it with military education and civic life, influencing modern dance forms.
- Roman Empire paid less attention to dance as wealth grew, leading to performances by slaves and captives.
- Early Christian Era marked the condemnation of dance due to its association with corruption, although its healing properties were recognized later.
Elements of Dance
- The primary elements of dance include space, timing, dance energies, and bodily shape.
- Space includes direction, size, and level of movements: movements can travel in various directions (forward, backward) and vary in size (large or small) and level (high, medium, low).
- Timing involves executing movements at different tempos, moving with the underlying beat and can vary in speed.
Benefits of Dance
- Historically viewed as a performing art, it took until the 1950s for research to confirm the health benefits of dance.
- Dance promotes physical activity, therapeutic experiences, and communication, reinforcing body and mind wellness.
Assessing Physical Activity and Fitness Levels
- Body composition measures the ratio of fat and nonfat components of body weight; common metrics include Body Mass Index (BMI) and Waist Circumference.
- Cardiorespiratory endurance refers to the body's ability to perform activities involving large muscle groups at moderate to high intensity over extended periods.
- Muscular fitness comprises strength (force production by skeletal muscles) and endurance (muscles' ability to perform repeated contractions).
Exercise Safety and Training Principles
- Principles of training include overload (stress needed for improvement), progression (systematic adjustment of training), reversibility (loss of fitness due to inactivity), and variety (maintaining motivation through diverse activities).
- Overload can be induced gradually to avoid injury, while progression should follow the FITT principle (Frequency, Intensity, Time, Type).
- Recovery intervals are necessary to allow the body to adapt and prevent injuries during the training process.
Health Guidelines and Recommendations
- The Philippine National Guidelines on Physical Activity advocate for simple strategies to adopt a physically active lifestyle.
- Safety in exercise involves listening to one’s body, avoiding overexertion, and ensuring a proper workout environment to minimize injuries.
