Solo dance is a dance form, which refers to a dance performed by a single person on the stage.
Dance is a performing art that uses the body to complete various elegant or difficult movements. It is usually accompanied by music and uses rhythmic movements as the main means of expression. It usually uses music and other props.
Dance itself has multiple social meanings and functions, including sports, social interaction, courtship, sacrifice, etiquette, etc. Before the origin of human civilization, dance was important in rituals, etiquette, celebrations and entertainment. Dance appeared in China five thousand years ago. It originated from slave society and developed into certain characteristics during the Qin and Han Dynasties.
The dance movements in dance works must also have a certain degree of technical skills. Dancers must have difficult skills such as jumping, spinning, tumbling, softness, and control. However, performing in dance works is difficult. The skills and movements themselves are not the purpose, but a means to express the character's thoughts and feelings, and to shape the character's personality and mental outlook.
If in a dance work, the means is used as the purpose, the actor's superb skills are not based on reflecting life and expressing the characters' thoughts and feelings as the premise of their existence, or the corresponding dance is not selected based on the dance content. Movement skills, but based on demonstrating the dance skills and abilities mastered by the actor, will cause the dance works to fail due to the disconnection between content and form, or the lack of artistic integrity, and the dancer's skills themselves will be reduced to Instead of acrobatic skill performances, the basic character of dance art is lost.
