What type of outfits do you wear in jazz dancing?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

maybe jazz pants or other flexible pants or shorts, but try not to do the leggings (aka tights for some people) thing. Just a slightly tight-fitting t-shirt or man-singlet should be good. The whole purpose of the clothes are to make it easier to dance in, so what you need is flexible clothes, that aren't too baggy, that you can move around and, essentially, dance in.

Why is a plie important?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A plie is a bending of the knees in ballet, or most any other style of dance. They can be petit(just a slight bend) or grande(large bend where you are nearly touching the floor), and in every foot position(1st,2nd,3rd,4th,5th). A plie is done before and after every jump/leap in order to reduce the shock that goes down your legs and can cause injuries. A plie is the most basic skill in dancing.

ballet is just like it was before. it is a beautiful and difficult sport. it takes alot of energy, balance, leg muscle, concentration, and persistence. you have to havea love for the sport to do it because if you dont then you wont want to put the work into it. its a sport(like most sports) where you have to put a few quarters in before it can play music. it also takes a lot of talent. More input More modern, more inventive, more expensive. More elaborate with everything. Diets and workouts have improved, too. That's how evolution works.

What is more exercise Irish step dancing or hip hop and jazz?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Hip hop by itself is healthier than Irish step dancing, because you use your whole body, practice good balance, and must have upper-body strength for the power moves.

Counting both hip hop and jazz, yes, they definitely provide more exercise than Irish step dancing, since you only move your legs in Irish step dancing.
