D What Is It?

Nature of the Different Dances

Dance is an expression of the body, following rhythmic patterns and is accompanied
by music. From the primitive man expressing emotions in such events as birth, death,
marriage, war among other things, dance has evolved to modern forms of social dancing.
These are the different forms of dance:
Traditional (Folk and Ethnic)
Traditional dances are dances of indigenous communities that show cultural traits
of people in specific time and place. Customs and traditions through dance steps and
costumes are preserved in traditional dance. These dances are handed down from
generation to generation, with fixed sets or patterns.
Ethnic dances are classified into two major categories. First, the dances of the Non-
Christian Filipinos are made up to the pagan groups and the Muslim groups. Second,
there are the dances of the Christian and the lowland Filipinos, some of which are
comprised of savage and vigorous or light-hearted. Other forms have neither music nor
melodic accompaniment. Some examples are the dances of the aetas and that of the
Muslims.
Folk dances are classified according to geographical locations and the nature of the
dances. According to geographical locations, folk dances can be national (dances with
1
common basic movements, with slight variations) or local/regional (dances that are
unique to certain localities only). According to the nature of dance, folk dances can be:
occupational dances, religious or ceremonial dances; courtship dances; wedding dances;
festival dances; war dances; comic dances; game dances; and social dances.
Modern and Contemporary
Modern dance is a development that is less formal that a classical ballet.
Contemporary dance incorporates the strong legwork and balance of ballet and the
trunk movements of modern dance.
Ballroom Dances
Ballroom dances comprise of a number of different dances. There are two
categories: In American style, the categories are called Smooth and Rhythm and in
International style they are called Standard and Latin. For the most part, the Standard
and Smooth categories contain the same dances and the Latin and Rhythm categories
contain basically the same dances. These are listed in the order that they are danced in
competitions. These are the waltz, the polka, the tango, the faxtrot, the swing, the rumba,
the quick step, the paso double, the samba, the mambo, the cha cha, and the jive.
Cheer Dance
As the name implies, cheer dance is a combination of cheering and dancing.
Components include the mandatory cheer as well as a number of gymnastic or acrobatic
moves such as cartwheels and back hand springs. The purpose of cheer dance is usually
to motivate sports teams, entertain audience, or the actual competition.
Hip Hop/ Street Dance
Hip hop or street dance has its roots traced to New York, from the African
American and Latino American communities. It is usually associated with rap music, a
form of chanting or poetry delivered at the speed of 16-bar measures (time frame). The
term hip-hop refers to a complex culture compromising four elements: deejaying or
“turntabling”; rapping, also known as “MCing” or “rhyming”; grafitti painting, also known
as “graf” or “writing”; and “B-boying,” which encompasses hip-hop dance, style, and
attitude, along with the sort of virile body language that Cornel West described as
“postural semantics.” (A fifth element, “knowledge of self/consciousness,” is sometimes
added to the list of hip-hop elements, particularly by socially conscious hip-hop artists
and scholars.)
Festival Dance
Festival dances are seen during celebrations or fiestas. Usually, festival dances
celebrate good harvest or good fortune. An event ordinarily celebrated by
a community and centering on some characteristic aspect of that community and
its religion or cultures.
III. EXAMPLES/SITUATION
1. Traditional dance (Folk dance and Ethnic dance) – the dances focus on the important
events like, birth, death, marriage, war, a new leader, the healing of the sick, prayers for
the rain, sun, and fertility, protection, and forgiveness,
2. MODERN AND CONTEMPORARY DANCE - modern ballet, interpretative dance, stage
play. Most of this style can be seen in the opening or production of TV shows like
ASAP, Sunday pinasaya, Showtime.

At the end of this module, students should be able to;

a. identify the fundamental movements.
b. appreciate the value of fundamental movements from day to day life activities
c. perform varied physical activities that develops fundamental movements.

D What Is It?

1. FUNDAMENTAL RHYTHMS
The fundamental rhythm program sets the basis for rhythmic movement in all
forms of dance activities through its stress on fundamental skills done in rhythm. It
centres on locomotor, non-locomotor or axial movements, and manipulative skills,
with most attention given to the locomotor types.
The general purpose of a program of fundamental rhythms is to provide a
variety of fundamental movement experiences, so the child can move effectively and
efficiently and develop a sense of rhythm in connection with these movements.
The skills in a fundamental rhythm program are important. . . in setting the
basics for the more precise dance skills of folk, social, and creative dances. It is also
related to effective movement in all forms of living.
2. CENTERS OF FUNDAMENTAL RHYTHM
A. Locomotor Movements – are movements through space that bring the body
from one place to another.
a.1. Walk – a series of steps. The steps are from one foot to the other. The
weight being transferred from heel to toe.
a.2. Run – a run may be compared to a fast walk except that the weight is
carried forward on the ball of the foot.

8
 a.3. Jump – a spring from one or both feet, landing on both. On landing the
balls of the feet touch the floor first, then the heels come down, the knees
bend to absorb shock of landing.
a.4. Hop – a spring from one foot landing on the same foot.
a.5. Skip – a fast step hop.
a.6. Slide – a glide followed by a quick close.
a.7. Leap – a spring on one foot landing on the other foot.
a.8. Gallop – a series of stepping and cutting movements done either
sideward or forward with one feet always leading.
The Locomotor movements are classified into:
Even – e.g. are walking, running, hopping, leaping, and jumping: and
Uneven – e.g. are skipping, galloping and sliding.
B. Non-Locomotor or Axial Movements – are movements done in place, with one part
of the body serving as an axis or base around which other parts move.
b.1. Bend or Flex – a movement around a joint, either forward, backward or
sideward.
b.2. Twist – a rotation of some body parts around its long axis. It can only
take place at the spinal, neck, shoulder, hip and wrist joints.
b.3. Stretch– the extension or hyperextension of the joints of the body.
b.4. Swing – a movement of the arms, legs, upper trunk, head or body as a
whole in a circular of pendular fashion around a stationary centre. The other
examples of axial movements are pull, push or lift and turn.
C. Manipulative Object Handling – is one in which a child handles some kind of play
objects usually with the hands, but it can involve the feet and other parts of the
body. e.g. tambourines, castanets, hats, sticks, balls, rings, hoops, wands, etc.

D What Is It?

CREATIVE RHYTHMS
Creative rhythms provide a special area in the rhythmic program where creativity is the
goal and functional movement is secondary. The goal is to communicate feelings
through movement guided by rhythm.

Creative movement is a wonderful way to get active with your child at home. You may
feel that you do not have the expertise to do so but have no fear, it is not that difficult!
You can add creative movement, drama and dance elements into your everyday routine.
For example, you can get your child to mimic the movement of animals when moving
from the living room to the toilet. - “Let’s pretend to be kangaroos. How will a kangaroo
move?” “The floor is now filled with thick oozy mud. How can we get across to the other
side of the room?”

A. Fundamental Motor Rhythms

B. Expressive Movement – where children express moods & feelings and show their
reactions to colours and sounds by improvising dances. Movements that
demonstrate different aspects of force, gestures that depict different feelings.
b.1 Identification
 Animal
 People
 Play objects
 Make-believe world
b.2 Dramatization – many rhythmic movements are fine vehicles for group
development.
 Building a house, a garage, or another project.
 Flying a kite, going camping.
 Acting out stories about firefighters, fairies, cowboys.
13
  Interpreting familiar stories _ “Sleeping Beauty.” “Little Red Riding Hood,”
“Cinderella.”
 Household tasks – washing clothes, picking fruits, ironing clothes, etc.
 Machines
 Circus
 Nature
 Celebrating holidays - Christmas, “Flores de Mayo,” Independence Day: Sports
Activities – basketball, swimming, softball ets.
C. Singing Movement Songs include action songs and singing games. In these rhythmic
activities, the children usually sing verses, and the verses tell the children how to
move.
 London Bridge
 Mulberry Bush
 Jack and Jilll

BENEFITS OF CREATIVE MOVEMENT

1. Body awareness. To work on their coordination, body control, balance, stamina, and
overall strength.
2. Spatial awareness. To move in their own personal space, be aware of other children’s
personal space and
respect others as everyone move together in a shared space.
3. Self-confidence. Taking risks in activities, performing for an audience and to trust
their ideas and abilities.
4. Concentration. Develop a sustained focus of mind and body.
5. Cooperation and Collaboration. Working in groups, listening and responding,
offering suggestions, exploring others’ ideas.
6. Problem-solving. Look at problems in new ways and practice their critical thinking
skills.
7. Imagination. Making creative choices, thinking of new ideas, and interpreting
familiar materials in new ways.
8. Fun! Learning through play and at the same time improves motivation and reduces
stress.

EXAMPLE/SITUATION
Try to search example of tiktok compilation. You can watch an example of creative
dance steps. Everyone reacts to music or rhythm in one form or another. A head
swaying, a foot tapping, fingers snapping, shoulders and body moving while a musical
piece is played are physical reactions.

Dance refers to movement set to music where there emerges organization, structure and
pattern. It is a composition that implies arrangement of parts into a form.

Dancing is a means of expressing one’s emotions through movement disciplined by

rhythm. It is an act of moving rhythmically and expressively to an accompaniment. The
word dancing came from an old German word “ danson” which means to “ stretch”.
Essentially, all dancing is made up of stretching and relaxing.

of tumbling, dance, jumps, cheers, and
stunting.
DIFFERENCE OF CHEERDANCING AND CHEERLEADING
- Cheerdancing is rooted from cheerleading.
-Cheerleading as we all know developed in the United States of America. But did you
know that the
Philippines has had developed Cheerdancing?
-Cheerdancing in all levels has always been the opening salvo for intramurals in
campuses in the Philippines.
The difference between Cheerleading and Cheerdancing is that cheerleading has its
foundation in Gymnastics. And as for Cheerdance, it's foundation lies in the
Choreography where Ballet seems to be its foundation.
26
 Cheer motions are made up of hand, arm, and body positions. Although cheer styles
may vary according to the cheerleaders’ preferences, all motions originate from the
standard basic motions.
 Cheerleading Formations are crucial to the success of a squad’s performance.
 Bowling Pin – the formation is set up like bowling pins in a bowling alley. This works
great when highlighting a few members on a squad or team.
 Staggered Line – a simple line where the back line is positioned in the windows of the
front line. Vertical lines in formation highlight differences in levels rather than suggest
squad uniformity.
 Cheer dance Routines require a mixture of dance music and some cheer segment to
kick off a routine. They may be arranged in any order depending on the squad’s
choreography. The duration or length per segment also depends on the competition’s
criteria.
 Today, cheer dancing is identified as one of the most spectacular events in one of the
biggest collegiate sports events in the country, the UAAP (University Athletic Association
of the Philippines).

TASK 4: APPLICATION
Directions: Monitor the Level of your performance task in number 2 using task 1 form.
Don’t forget your safety protocol like dehydration etc.

1: My Target Heart Rate (to determine the intensity level target)

Directions: Go over your recorded fitness results from the self-testing activity as basis in
computing the target heart rate (THR) range. Compute you target Heart rate range in 4
steps. Fill in the blanks below.

MY TARGET HEART RATE

Name: _______________________________ Date: _____________ Year/Section:______________

1. Get the Maximum Heart Rate Example:

MHR = 220 - _____ (your age) Age: 15
RHR: 60
MHR = __________ MHR = 220 – 15
MHR = 205
2. Determine the Heart Rate Reserve
HRR = MHR - _______________ (Resting Heart Rate) HRR = 205 – 60
HRR = _____________________ HRR = 145

3. Take 60% and 80% of the HRR

a. 60% x HRR = _________________ 60% x 145 = 87
b. 80% x HRR = _________________ 80% x 145 = 116

4. Add each HRR to Resting Heart Rate (RHR) to obtain the Target Heart Rate (THR)
range.

a. 60% HRR 87 + 60
(RHR) = 147 beats per minute

b. 80% x HRR 116 + 60

(RHR) = 176 beats per minute

Therefore, your target heart rate range is 147 to 176 beats per minute.
(4.a) (4.b)
(When performing physical activities, your heart rate is within the normal range therefore,
you have to select moderate- vigorous activities that will make your heart rate pump within
the THR range of from 147 to 176 beats per minute.)

2. (Don’t forget to fill up the information before, during and after the performance.) Pretend
your group is auditioning to be cheerleaders for your school's basketball team/ or wants
to be part of school team. Create a 40 seconds to one-minute cheer routine with a catchy
chant and music, and movements that would highlight different hand movements and
squad formation. Record the routine and send via messenger.
