So now, I will ask you.
According to the video clip
what is the importance of
dance?
(Some students will try to
Our, topic for today is all answer)
about dance. So, what is
the definition of dance?

Okay, you are all correct.

We have here 5 different
definition of dance. Firstly,
dance is an expression
and rhythmic movement
of an intensified sense of
life. An expressive body
movement usually
coordinates into a pattern
and adapted to musical
accompaniment. It is the
oldest of the arts
reflecting man’s age-old (The students will listen
need to communicate joy attentively)
or brief by using the most
immediate instrument at
his disposal, his body.

The second one, Dance

form takes centuries to
develop but reflect the
custom of society in which
they have evolve. Dance
steps are created from
man’s basic movements:
the walk, run, jump, hop,
skip, slide, leap, turn and
away. Stylized
combinations of this
movements create dances
from folk and ethnic
dances, social or ballroom
dances, ballet and modern
expressive dances. Dance
is not only an individual or
group experience, but also
a cultural mirror in which
the spirit, character and
artistry of its time is
reflected.

Next is, Dance is poetry in

movement. It is
vocabulary and skill,
values, judgment and
perspective. Dance is a
character and spirit, body
and soul.
Then, Dance changes as
people use it. Nearly every
dance today was ushered
in with hysteria and
daring. People literally
threw up their hands in
each case but gradually
those “rocking, swinging”
rhythm won over the
people made them fit their
more conservative needs.
Then fads have a way by
which one cannot afford
to overlook in keeping up
with times. They challenge
and they stimulate fresh
interest in rhythm,
improvement, and in all
dancers.

And lastly, Dance is a

visual and auditory feast;
its meanings, costumes,
props, and music. To the
cultural researcher, dance
is a rich mine of ethno
historical information.
Traditional dances, in
particular, are living fossils
that symbolize continuity
and unity. Whether
solemn or exuberant,
simple or complex, they
are pulsating quaint
embodiments of creative
fervor.

( one student will answer

Okay so again, who can the question)
give me atleast one
definition of dance?

Okay! Very good!

Now, dancing has many

purpose like:

a. The dance employs no

other instrument but
the human body itself,
which is the most
eloquent and
responsive of all
instruments. Thus, the
dance is the most
personal of all medium
of art.
b. Dance allows the
observer a glimpse into
 the very core or
psyche of a nation. “ A
people culture, nature
and aspiration come to
life in dance.”
c. The dance I dependent
on the human body, its
possibilities, limitations
and malformation. The
human body has
technical attributes.
Even by lying down,
sitting, and standing,
jumping, and twisting
on air, all the while
with support from the
spin.
d. In many cases,
dancing serves as a
way for a man and
woman to become
acquainted before they
married.
e. The human body has
five access. First, there
is no horizontal access
running down the
center of the body
from head to feet.
Then, there are three
more access running
vertical and parallel
through the body. So
when one turn on his
access, he feels high,
glorified, exalted.
Thus, man can reach
exaltation in
movement. Balance
can bring man close to
Godliness. In fact, in
many societies,
dancing has been use
in worship.
f. Others consider dance
a recreation, for they
find fun and
entertainment in doing
so. Social dances are
for the sake of
companionship. Some
people dance to
escape from the
monotony of their daily
routine.
g. Dancing serves many
other purposes,
including a means of
communication,
 expression of feelings
and even for
therapeutic purposes.
h. Through dance the

We have Four (4) Kinds of

dance.

1. Communal Dance-
members of primitive
tribal culture invented
dance as a magic, a
strategy, a method, for
survival. Dance was
their way to life. In
their dance, they
sought to transcend
the consciousness of
self by achieving
ecstatic state in which
they would arrive at a
mastery over evil spirit.

I have here a sample Communal Dance

video of communal dance. https://www.youtube.com/wat
Let's watch. ch?v=40apG7aK0YE

2. Ritual Dance- unlike

the primitive dance,
ritual dance is a
conscious dance,
organized volitionally in
its design, purpose and
meaning. It represents
a much latest societal
development, a level of
civilization where
dance celebrates,
mythology rather than
magic.

Let’s us take a look for Ritual Dance

this short video clip about https://www.youtube.com/wat
ritual dance. ch?v=8I3AfnrweiQ

3. Folk Dance- It
developed from
regional memories of
older motif in
communal dance. Folk
dances reflect an
underlying unconscious
paganism in the
celebration n of the
harvest and the event
of ordinary life, and
the dance as charm of
rain, fertility, good
fortune, etc. the dance
also provided a sense
of solidarity,
particularly in the
ethnic dances which
preserved a desired
sense of racial or
regional identity.

I also have one video clip Folk Dance

of folk dance. https://www.youtube.com/wat
ch?v=Ow85T4gk8yY

4. Social Dance- this

dance has a gay and
lively character its
nature reflected
related elements of the
respective time
periods- the elaborate
and bulky passions in
clothes, the spacious
floor areas of court
and places, and the
elegance of the
successive periods. Social Dance
Let us all watch this short https://www.youtube.com/wat
video about social dance. ch?v=QlK35CRIgpo

We have 8 ELEMENTS OF
DANCE
1. Theme- an important
element of dance. It
refers to the message
conveyed by the
dance.
2. Design- refers to the
plan or organization of
movement in time and
space.
3. Movement- is the
action of dancers as
they use their bodies
to create or organize
the pattern. Movement
of dance- is the
medium of dance. The
elements of movement
are space, time,
duration and force.

a. Space- is the area

that surrounds us.
It refers to the
environment that
leads in; it is the
place for we have
such movements
that create patterns
and designs.
b. Time- dance
utilizes time in
ways that
determine the
rhythm, tempo, and
duration of
movement.
c. Duration- refers to
the length of time
expanded by a
movement. It can
be measured and
regulated by drum
beat or musical
accompaniment.
d. Force- it is an
energy which is
always present
when motion
occurs. Dynamics is
the force of
movement.

4. Techniques- refer to
skill in executing
movements. A
technically proficient
dance has complete
control over the
muscles of his body.
5. Music- motivates the
movements of dancers.
It is something melodic
and harmonious use as
an accompaniment. It
is also serves as the
background that
further captivates the
spectators.
 6. Costume and Props-
enhance the effect of
the dance. They are
the visual elements
which are reflective of
the costumes, beliefs,
and environment of
the people.
7. Choreography- refers
to the forms and
arrangement and
organizations of dance
steps and movements.
Choreography is the
term for dance
composition. A good
choreography must fill
the stage, through a
progressive series of
picture, using both the
solo dancer and a
corps de ballet.
8. Scenery- refers to the
setting of background;
the place of action to
make the dance more
artistic ad beautiful.
