1. What is Movement?

A movement is a motion, a change in position.

2. 2 types of Movement, define and give example.

Aerobic Exercise:
Aerobic training involves some type of continuous muscular activity
with minimal resistance for 30 minutes or over, three to four times
weekly. The intensity of the activity or exercise should be great enough
to increase the heart rate by 70 to 85% of the individual’s maximum
heart rate. Aerobic exercises include running, cycling, skiing, swimming
and walking.

Anaerobic Exercise:
Anaerobic means "without oxygen." An anaerobic exercise is any
exercise that requires short bursts of power, such as sprinting or
weight lifting, which do not require a significant increase in oxygen
delivery to the muscle. The ability to perform this type of work is
dependent instead on energy sources stored in the muscle, because
this energy supply is limited, anaerobic exercise can be sustained for
only short periods of time. In reality, most exercise is a combination of
aerobic and anaerobic exercise. The amount of each is dependent on
how hard and fast the exercise proceeds.

3. Define choreography.
– Choreography (literally "dance-writing" from the Greek words
"χορεία" (circular dance, see chorea) and "γραφή" (writing), also
known as "dance composition"), is the art of making structures in
which movement occurs. The term composition may also refer to
the navigation or connection of these movement structures. The
resulting movement structure may also be referred to as the
choreography. People who create choreographies are called
choreographers.
4. Define Ballroom Dancing and Social Dancing.
– Ballroom dance refers to a set of partner dances, which are enjoyed
both socially and competitively around the globe. Its performance
and entertainment aspects are also widely enjoyed on stage, in
film, and on television.
– While historically ballroom dance may refer to any form of formal
social dancing as recreation, with the emergence of dancesport in
modern times the term has become much narrower in scope,
usually referring specifically to the International Standard and
International Latin style dances (see dance categories below). In the
United States, two additional variations—"American Smooth" and
 "American Rhythm"—have also been popularized and are
commonly recognized as styles of "ballroom dance".

– Social dance is a major category or classification of danceforms or

dance styles, where sociability and socializing are the primary
focuses of the dancing.[1] Social dances can be danced with a
variety of partners and still be lead and followed in a relaxed, easy
atmosphere.[2]

– Social dancing (Ballroom, Latin or Country & Western) is variously

classified by its proponents as a hobby or pastime, leisure
recreation or entertainment, an art form, or a sport. Dancers
generally accept that "pastime" (def - any activity that makes time
pass agreeably) or "recreation" (def - a means or activity to refresh
one's body or mind) are apt descriptions, but hold firm in the belief
that "art" and/or "sport" are more comprehensive and accurate
descriptors.

5. DanceSport
– Dancesport denotes competitive ballroom dancing at events that
are sanctioned and regulated by dancesport organizations.
6. 2 styles of Dancesport
– International Style of competitive ballroom (often referred
to as Standard or Modern) dancinge

○ Within the international style of DanceSport are two

categories of dances, Standard and Latin. In England (e.g., at
the Blackpool Dance Festival), the categories are traditionally
called "Ballroom" and "Latin American" dances, respectively.
In the Standard dances, men typically wear coattails, vests,
and bow ties, while women wear elegant and colorful gowns,
often with sheer fabric draped from the shoulders or arms.
Partners remain in closed position throughout the dance, and
movements tend to be elegant and sweeping. The Latin
dances are more overtly sensual, with skimpy costumes for
women and tight-fitting ones for men. More variation in
movement is allowed than in the Standard dances, so hip
action and athletic maneuvers such as dips are common.

– American style
○ The Smooth and Rhythm categories of American style
DanceSport roughly correspond to the Standard and Latin
categories of International style. In Smooth, dancers wear
costumes similar to those worn by their counterparts in
Standard; however, the dances themselves are significantly
different as a result of influence by dancers like Fred Astaire
and Arthur Murray in the years following World War II. While
elegance and flow remain the goal, as in International
Standard, dancers do not remain in closed position
exclusively, instead breaking away from each other
periodically and experimenting with open footwork. The
Rhythm dances were also influenced by American dancers of
the post-WWII era, but the differences between it and
International Latin are more subtle. Costumes are similar,
and while step patterns are not identical, movements are as
free and explicitly sensual as in Latin.

7. Definition of Dance.
– Dance (from French danser, perhaps from Frankish) is a sport and
art form that generally refers to movement of the body, usually
rhythmic and to music, used as a form of expression, social
interaction or presented in a spiritual or performance setting.
– Dance is a human behaviour characterised by rhythmic movement
of the body.
