NATURE OF DANCE
- Dance originates from the German word "DAMSON," meaning "to stretch" or "to drag."
- It serves as a natural expression of collective feelings and actions, reflecting historical, religious, social, and political events.
- Dance can narrate stories, convey moods, express emotions, and is often a recreational activity and socialization tool.
- Participation in dance can facilitate healing and serve as a form of personal and emotional expression.
- Each dance form possesses a unique identity and serves both aesthetic and entertainment purposes while promoting fitness.
ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS
- Ancient Crete acted as a cultural bridge between Egypt and Greece, using dance for military training.
- Ancient Greece recognized dance for entertainment; philosopher Plato valued its role in education.

OPTIMIZE ENERGY THROUGH DANCE AND HABIT
- Energy for movement originates from food; the body requires nutrients for muscle fuel.
- Carbohydrates: Primary fuel during exercise, stored as glycogen.
- Fats: Main energy source at rest and during prolonged low-intensity exercises.
- Proteins: Primarily used for growth and repair, with minimal role in energy during exercises.
EATING HABITS

- Emotional Eating: Eating excessively as an emotional outlet; can lead to weight gain.
- Social Eating: Consuming food in social settings, often more enjoyable than solitary meals.
- Distracted Eating: Eating while distracted, like during TV or sports, leading to uncontrolled consumption.
ENERGY SYSTEMS
- Aerobic System: Utilizes oxygen for energy; suited for long-duration activities.
- Anaerobic System: Functions without oxygen; includes ATP and glycolytic pathways for high-intensity efforts.
-
Energy Pathways:
- ATP-CP System: Supplies energy rapidly for short bursts (5-15 seconds). Example: 110m sprint.
- Glycolytic System: Generates energy through glucose breakdown for medium effort (30 seconds to 2 minutes). Example: high-intensity activities like circuit training.
CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
- Blood pathways consist of pulmonary circulation (heart to lungs) and systemic circulation (heart to body).
- Understanding energy dynamics and nutrient utilization is crucial for optimizing performance in dance and physical activities.
