Hello students, my name is Sadek Waf.

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:05,840
I am going to introduce the dance unit.

3
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:08,560
After this you will be able to recognize,

4
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:12,080
create and perform different rhythmic patterns and choreographies.

5
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:15,280
I will show you one of mine to give you an example.

6
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:20,000
Music beat or rhythm is the regular pattern of sound in music.

7
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,840
It is created by repeating a pattern of notes or chords.

8
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:28,400
The beat is the foundation of music and sets the tone and pace of the song.

9
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,880
Choreography is the art of creating and arranging dance movements.

10
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,960
It is important to emphasize that choreography is not just about

11
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,440
memorizing certain steps or dance moves,

12
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,640
it is about creating a meaningful story through the use of movement.

13
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,400
The main concepts of choreography include the following.

14
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,560
1. Form, the overall structure and shape of the dance.

15
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:56,880
2. Dynamics, the use of speed, space and energy to create variety in choreography.

16
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,040
3. Style, the particular style or genre of dance.

17
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:06,880
4. Musicality, the use of rhythm and musicality to bring the choreography to life.

18
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:12,560
5. Expression, the ability to convey emotion, meaning and purpose in movement.

19
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,960
6. Innovation, the use of original ideas and creative

20
00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:19,360
problem-solving to create unique choreography.

21
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:22,880
Dance and music are linked in many ways.

22
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,520
The dancer must be aware of the beat and rhythm of the music in order to move in

23
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,640
time with the music and create a dynamic, expressive dance.

24
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,200
The dancer must also be aware of the musical form and structure in order to

25
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,680
create a choreography that is consistent with the music.

26
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,720
So good luck and go for it!
