Dancing classes bring the ability to control your own body and self-confidence, develop plasticity, a sense of rhythm, and increase self-esteem. This is a great way to throw out energy, an opportunity for liberation and self-expression. If you decide to learn to dance, you need to choose a specific direction and a suitable studio.
Instructions
Step 1
First, think about which direction your health and physical fitness can allow you. For people of mature age, energetic street dances (break dance, for example) are hardly suitable, but expressive tangos or flamenco are always brightly and with feeling performed by dancers with a certain life experience. If you have joint problems or varicose veins of the lower extremities, you will have to give up Irish dancing or flamenco, which involve a serious load on the legs. People with diseases of the cardiovascular system or problems with the spine (sciatica, osteochondrosis, intervertebral hernia) are advised to consult a trainer or attending physician before starting any exercise. Excess weight is rarely a contraindication to any direction and with intensive training it quickly disappears, and, for example, an oriental dance looks especially impressive when it is performed by a woman with curvaceous forms.
Step 2
Listen to yourself - the dance should match your character. If you are energetic and light-headed, almost anything will suit you, especially Latina, club and street dancing. For women who are not afraid to draw attention to themselves, there are areas such as strip plastic, pole dance. Passionate people will be interested in tango and flamenco, and phlegmatic and calm - ballroom dances, especially slow and Viennese waltz, Indian dances. Such extraordinary national trends as Scottish, Irish, Gypsy dance are gaining popularity. And for lovers of exotic there is such an option as tribal dance - the so-called "tribal" dance, which combines elements of both national dances of different cultures and primitive rituals. It looks very peculiar and fascinating. If you have always dreamed of ballet, then there are classical dance schools for adults. Of course, you are unlikely to get on the stage of the Bolshoi Theater, for this you need to study from childhood, but you can still reach certain heights with hard work.
Step 3
When choosing a dance studio, pay attention to the reviews of those who have already visited it, the variety of directions offered. The personality of the coach shouldn't be antipathy to you. Some schools and studios offer free trial lessons - don't be lazy and go, evaluate the equipment of the training rooms, the behavior of the teacher, just feel how comfortable you are here.
