How to dance Tibetan dance well?

Dancing Tibetan dance well requires a step-by-step training. That is: body training, grasp of dance style, and handling of movement rhythm.

First of all, master the posture and rhythm of Tibetan dance through physical training. The unique body posture of Tibetan dance has the same characteristics: the center is forward, and the body is slightly forward or bent forward at 90 degrees. The morphological characteristics of Tibetan women include leaning forward, holding their breasts, hanging their arms, and loosening their hips. They are accustomed to combining fluid and varied lower body movements with upper body movements during exercise, forming a natural and leisurely dance characteristic. Tibetan men are characterized by a posture that extends from the knees down to the hips and drooped arms. Combined with the active movements of the lower limbs, it drives the movements of the upper limbs to follow, forming a unique dance dynamic. In Tibetan dance, the upper body movements of female dancers are subtle and elegant, giving people a feeling of health and grace. Women's "whole body posture should be soft", "the body should be as light as if there is no flesh on the body, and the dance posture should be as soft as if there are no bones in the waist. From the back, it seems like there are no arms, and from the front, it seems like there is no belly."

In terms of grasping the "style" of Tibetan dance, we should strengthen our understanding of Tibetan culture, feel the living environment, folk customs, religious beliefs, and understand things related to the nation's survival consciousness. Softness, bending, and trembling are the inherent charm of Tibetan dance, forming the movement pattern of Tibetan folk dance that "you cannot move without bending, and you must bend first if you want to move." At the same time, the coordination of body movements and rhythm is also very important. The heavy beat is to lift the feet up briskly, rather than stomping down hard. While lifting, the body naturally sways, and the knees vibrate slightly. Dancers should experience the flow of breath through the body, and the proper integration of body movements and breath in the rhythm.

Finally, artistically handle the action rhythm from the perspective of performance skills. Dance is inseparable from rhythm, just as life is inseparable from breathing. Structuring dance with appropriate and beneficial movements and rhythm is like adjusting breathing to make life steady and smooth. In addition, when dealing with rhythm, we must not only work on the essence of dance, but also strengthen the cultivation of music theory qualities and care for a life full of rhythm.
