對某些人來說,跳舞可以放鬆心情也可以暫時忘記煩惱又算是一種運動

最近很紅的騎馬舞Gangnam Style竟然奇蹟似的帶動全世界的風潮,整個紅到國外去了!

那跳舞對各位來說,有什麼樣的功用呢?

Have you ever had dance lessons?

Here's what people in London said:

"I did ballet and tap until I was about seven. I think I just did it cos all my friends did it. "

(有些父母就是這樣,覺得別人家小朋友學什麼,就一窩風送小孩去學東學西)

"No, but I wish I had."

 

"Yeah I've been dancing since the age of three. I used to do ballet, tap, modern, jazz, national, street. Yeah I’ve taken up salsa as well recently, which is quite fun."

(這人是…舞棍阿伯的接班人嗎?)

When do you dance now?

 

"I do music videos; I do live shows with a couple of bands. So once or twice a month maybe."

 

- In the shower. (邊洗澡邊跳舞,想必這個人的浴室應該很大)

- Is that quite difficult?

- Sometimes yes!

 

And how does dancing make you feel?

 

Alive. When I'm dancing I don’t really think about anything else. It kind of is my own little world. When you're dancing it's just you in the moment.

 

 

Let’s dig in!

Have you ever had the experience to go to a ballet class in your childhood simply cos your mommy wants you to grow up dancing in a world stage? Most of the people nowadays dance cos it’s cool and appealing, especially in school. Those who can dance usually stand out of the crowd. Girls are attracted to guys who can show some moves.

 

Professional dancers love dancing cos they feel that they are in their own little world without having worried about anything else. When they dance, they are in the moment and always give in their full attention and focus.

 

What’s your personal interest that could make yourself in the moment? If you do have one already, you are definitely a lucky one! Keep with it.

下面這些都是不同舞蹈類型喔!

ballet 芭蕾舞

tap 踢踏舞

modern 現代舞

jazz 爵士舞

national 國標舞

street 街舞

salsa 騷莎舞

 

my own little world 有時候我們會說某些人活在自己的世界裡面,像之前新聞上很紅的張婷婷,我們就可以說 “She is living in her own little world.”

 

in the moment 當我們聽歌聽得很投入,唱歌唱的很投入的時候,就可以說 “I am in the moment of melody.”

 

 

Tell me about it…

 

How does dance make you feel? 跳舞會讓你有什麼感受?

 

What kind of dance do you master? 你最行的舞是什麼舞?

 

Now tell us, when do you dance? How does it make you feel?

FYI

“I do not try to dance better than anyone else. I only try to to dance better than myself.” - Mikhail Baryshnikov

我從來都不想要跳的比別人好,我只想超越我自己
