    Understanding Rhythm and Dance

    • Every individual has an innate sense of rhythm, present in nature and exemplified through dance.
    • Rhythm is characterized by the regular recurrence of accented and unaccented beats; it manifests as rhythmic movements in response to music.
    • Rhythmic activities reflect mental and emotional responses, fostering physical, social, and mental engagement.

    Objectives of Rhythmic Activities

    • Develop recreational enjoyment skills.
    • Maintain good posture and physical efficiency.
    • Promote emotional freedom and expression.
    • Cultivate a balanced and well-coordinated physique.

    • Tempo: The speed at which movements occur.
    • Intensity: Variations in the pressure applied during movement.
    • Pitch: The highness or lowness of sound.
    • Accent: Emphasis placed on specific beats.
    • Meter: The recurring pattern of beats within measures.
    • Phrase: Grouping of measures into recognizable segments.

    Movement Qualities

    • Time: Movement can be fast or slow; examples include a galloping horse versus a growing flower.
    • Natural Movements:
      • Locomotor: Movements that propel the body through space (e.g., walking, running).
      • Non-locomotor: Body parts move with a fixed base (e.g., bending, twisting).

    Values of Dancing
