What should beginners of hip-hop dance pay attention to?

　　Street dance is a small muscle movement. Regular practice can increase the coordination of the whole body and make your body proportions more standard. Currently, many fitness centers in Shenzhen offer hip-hop classes. When I see so many fashionable men and women wearing wide-leg pants and tight T-shirts, doing various hand-waving and hip-twirling movements in ecstasy or obsession, I feel like I'm in a disco.

　　But the difference is that their movements are more relaxed and casual, more chic and beautiful, and unified. Their faces were filled with the brilliance of sport and healthy The breath, and the shining beads of sweat.

　　What should you pay attention to when practicing hip-hop for the first time?

　　When you are initially learning hip-hop, you must not increase the amount of exercise all at once, but do it step by step. Usually, warm-up activities are done first to strengthen the various joints and ligaments of the body.

　　In particular, the knees and ankle joints should be fully mobile to avoid injury during beating; then enter into exercises of a certain intensity and time, preferably no less than 30 minutes; and finally use various stretching exercises to relax the body. Only in these three steps can you achieve better weight loss results.

　　Because everyone's age, physical ability and health status are different, the intensity of exercise varies from person to person. “"Exercise intensity" is generally used as "maximum heart rate ”Said that you should calculate the most suitable heart rate when dancing hip-hop like this: If you are 25 years old and do not often participate in sports, exercise , if you have average physical fitness and choose hip-hop as a weight-loss exercise, then your maximum heart rate is 220~25=195, and the appropriate exercise intensity (exercise heart rate) for you should be (60~75%×195=117~146 (times/minute)).

　　Clothing tips: Large T-shirts, floor-length multi-pocket pants, baseball caps, tight vests, sneakers, etc. are all your choices. However, I would like to remind you that while pursuing fashion and personalization, don’t ignore beauty. If it doesn't suit you, it just looks "weird" and not beautiful.

　　Getting started with HIP-HOP: You can choose some HIP-HOP music to adapt to the rhythm characteristics, and dance a few times to the HIP-HOP rhythm. When learning from the coach, follow the coach's procedure for breaking down the movements. For example, first learn the movements of the lower limbs, and then gradually add the movements of the upper limbs, head, etc., first slowly and then faster, don't rush for success.

　　Classification of hip-hop

　　Hip-hop is the most common type of dance that people are exposed to. It has large and simple dance steps that can express complex dance feelings. Because it is easy to learn and looks pretty when danced, it is very popular among the public.

　　Mechanical dance uses the muscles and joints of various parts of the body to create surprising dance steps in accordance with the beat of music and your own rich imagination. It is a more difficult type of street dance.

　　Break dancing is also a more difficult dance step. It can be roughly divided into two types: rotating the hands, head and body on the ground, which is called the big floor; using the limbs to step on the ground to make complex and changing foot movements, plus tricky handstands, which is called the small floor. Of course, you can also freely match the movements you want to express while dancing.

　　Freestyle is a kind of superb dance step. It mixes various types of dances and performs them as you like. There is no limit to the dance style and it breaks away from the norms of general dance. It can be said to be a kind of personalized street dance.

　　House, along with house music, uses complex and magical steps to express a dance step. It can be combined with twists of Latin dance, somersaults of martial arts, basic steps of tap dance and circles of ballet. It can be very elegant or quite wild when danced.
