Abstract

All dancers are looking to achieve optimal performance and Dance Anatomy and Kinesiology will help them do just that.This text helps dancers learn anatomical and biomechanical principles as they apply to dance performance. It focuses on optimal dance movement and the related principles for understanding the function of body joints. And by applying those principles, dancers can help reduce their risk of injury and enhance their performance longevity.In addition, Dance Anatomy and Kinesiology includes special practical applications:" Concept Demonstrations provide hands-on exercises to try." Tests and Measurements are specific to selected regions of the body." Dance Cues help analyze cue effectiveness and promote optimal movement execution." Study Questions and Applications help apply chapter concepts." Attachments provide the pronunciations, attachments, and key actions of the primary muscles covered in this text.The first two chapters cover the skeletal and muscular systems as they apply to dance and provide basic anatomical terminology and concepts. Chapters 3 through 7 delve into specific areas of the bodythe spine, the pelvic girdle and hip joint, the knee and patellofemoral joints, the ankle and foot, and the upper extremity.These chapters encompass primary bones, muscles, joints, alignment deviations, mechanics, and injuries for the given region, with special considerations for dance. They present strength and flexibility exercises to help dancers improve technique and prevent injuries. And they contain many practical exercises and examples that are specific to dance technique to help dancers apply the material. The material is augmented by more than 250 illustrations and nearly 350 photographs, which will appeal to the visual learning abilities of many dancers and reinforce the connection between technique and art.The final chapter presents a schema to help analyze full-body dance movements to determine optimal execution.Dance Anatomy and Kinesiology offers valuable scientific knowledge and understanding for dancers, helping them to blend anatomical and kinesiological principles with artistic expression. Such a blend of science and art will empower dancers to realize their potential and expand their artistic vision.

Abstract

Gagnez en équilibre, en souplesse et en fermeté en maîtrisant les mécanismes à l'œuvre dans chaque mouvement ! Pilates n'est pas une simple méthode de fitness, mais constitue un véritable système de conditionnement physique et mental destiné à renforcer son corps, accroître sa souplesse, améliorer sa coordination, réduire son stress, augmenter sa capacité de concentration et procurer un sentiment durable de bien-être. Cet ouvrage, grâce à son approche unique de Pilates, vous propose d'analyser les mouvements de l'intérieur, vous permettant ainsi de mieux appréhender une discipline reposant essentiellement sur la justesse de la posture. En comprenant les mécanismes qui entrent en action à chaque geste, vous saurez comment vous placer pour exécuter les exercices avec précision et efficacité. Et vous découvrirez de quelle manière la respiration, l'alignement, la posture et le mouvement sont fondamentalement liés. Les 46 exercices et les 200 dessins anatomiques légendés vous permettront de visualiser les muscles sollicités à chaque action et de comprendre comment des variations et des adaptations mineures peuvent influencer l'efficacité du mouvement. En ayant une meilleure connaissance de votre anatomie, il vous sera possible d'augmenter l'efficacité des exercices : en apprenant comment chaque mouvement utilise et affecte des groupes musculaires spécifiques, vous améliorerez votre pratique, réduirez les risques de blessure et optimiserez votre respiration. Cet ouvrage passionnera aussi bien ceux qui viennent de découvrir les nombreux bienfaits du Pilates que ceux qui pratiquent depuis longtemps cette méthode. Chacun et chacune bénéficiera d'une base solide sur laquelle fonder sa pratique et la perfectionner
