Chinese Actress Wang Lin won the third place in the student group of the Blackpool Dance Festival.
She is not a professional dancer, but she performs so wonderfully. Moreover, at the age of 50, she still radiates the charm of youth.
Everyone, especially the ladies, suddenly became very interested in dancing.
As long as you have passion, anything seems possible. What is needed is just time and consistent effort!
Everyone has experienced the "three-minute enthusiasm" when doing something, but dance tends to become a pursuit for long-term goals.
1、Dancing has a sense of purpose.
The reason why people have a "three-minute enthusiasm" when doing things is mainly due to insufficient action ability. And the factor that affects "action ability" is often a deviation in the goal and direction. Whether it is an overly distant goal or an unclear goal, it can cause us to hesitate.However, there are too many things that can serve asperiodical goals in dance.
Every time a basic skill is mastered, it's like achieving a small goal. Every time one dances, there is a clear sense of purpose, and the motivation won't be easily diminished. As one progresses further, every time a dance is learned or a dance technique is mastered, it can serve as either a big or small goal, guiding us to carry out the plan accordingly. One by one, clear goals have linked together our journey of dancing, continuously prolonging the initial "three-minute enthusiasm".
2、Dancing has an exploratory nature.
Compared to the monotony of fitness, dancing might be more interesting. It is precisely this "interest" that gives us the desire to keep exploring and prevents us from giving up halfway.
When dancing, it is important to control the difficulty level of the learning process. Select content that is a bit challenging but not so difficult that it cannot be completed. This provides favorable conditions for entering the "flow" state. When we immerse ourselves in the dance and enter the flow state, our concentration reaches its peak, and our learning efficiency increases even more.
We may even have additional breakthroughs. Such achievements that meet expectations or exceed them will give us a great sense of satisfaction and accomplishment, and provide motivation for the next action.
3、Dancing has positive feedback.
Things like losing weight or studying do not yield immediate results once you start doing them. If the methods are incorrect, there might even be no results at all. Facing an uncertain and distant goal can make one feel a sense of powerlessness that seems endless. Without strong perseverance, it is really difficult to stick to it.
However, the feedback received from dancing is continuous. Even if only one movement is mastered in one class, we can see the most genuine feedback in the mirror. With the accumulation of time, our movement library expands from one movement to ten movements. We can remember the movements faster, perform more dances, and develop a better sense of dance.
The continuous positive feedback leads us into a positive cycle, and our motivation to continue dancing becomes stronger and stronger.
Moreover, dancing can also bring a series of additional benefits such as "improving health" and "shaping the body". These will enhance your posture and make you more confident and composed.
