PRESENTATION OUTLINE

DANCE

Newtons first law of motion states that an object in motion stays in motion and an object in rest stays in rest unless acted upon by an outside force.

In dance if you are posing you will not move until you force yourself to do so. If you are in a leap you will stay in the air for only a short amount of time because air resistance and gravity are working against you.

If you are in a turn, you need to have equilibrium to make sure you can maintain balance. If you do a needle you need to have inertia to remain steady and make sure your body is unchanging.

Newtons second law of motion states that force equals mass times acceleration.

Newtons second law shows that mass has an enormous effect on the ability to dance.

An arabesque position has more inertia than from a more a more straight position.

Newtons third law states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

Newtons third law is simple in that a dancer is involved in many poses which are motionless.

Whenever a dancer does a leap they apply a downward force on the stage and the stage applies an equal force up on the dancer to leave the stage to leap into the air.
