IMAGERY IN DANCE
Sometimes a dancer has the perfect experience in a dance class or performance.The dancer may describe it as effortless motion, kinetic flow, total body awareness, total freedom, inspiration, or pure joy in movement.Such a feeling occurs when the dancer’s mind and body work together as a unit.Mental preparation, especially the use of imagery, is just as important as physical discipline for a dancer.The use of mental imagery helps dancers discover a whole new range of possibilities within their bodies.Imagery focuses the mind, increases expression, broadens technique, releases excess tension, and improves balance and coordination
Now cover the passage and listen to the recording.When you hear the question, begin preparing your response.
The instructor describes the use of imagery in dance.Explain how specific imagery can affect a dancer’s experience and performance.
Now listen to part of a talk on this topic given by a dance instructor.
By imagery, I mean visualization, using your mind’s eye. For example, if you visualize your shoulders as you practice a turn, what happens if you imagine your shoulders to be very heavy, or light as air? If you focus on a part of your body— let’s say, your neck—while you perform a dance step, and then perform exactly the same sequence by focusing on your back, or your feet, what happens? The change in focus will change how you perform the step.
There are certain basic images that will help you develop an awareness that will fill your whole body. I want you to identify with each image as much as possible. For example, the image of a leaf—don’t just think about all the different things a leaf can do. Identify with the leaf, find out what a leaf would do from the point of view of a leaf. Become a leaf swept up by the wind. Let the wind play with you. Let the image control your expression.
Water is a powerful image. Imagine yourself slicing through water. Whatever body surface leads the movement is the bow of a ship cutting through the water. Or think of your feet and hands splashing through water. Or imagine you’re completely under water. Move underwater like a fish. Using different images of water will give you a wider range of techniques for expressing yourself. The images will increase your sense of mental clarity. Some of my students have even reported having fewer muscle aches after using the water imagery.

答案
One kind of imagery is visualization, or using your mind’s eye, to focus on a specific part of your body as you perform a dance step. If you change the focus to a different body part, it will change how you perform the step.
The image of a leaf can help you develop an awareness that will fill your whole body. Identifying with the leaf allows the image to control your expression.
Images of water include slicing through water like a ship, splashing through water, and moving underwater like a fish. Using different images of water will give you a wider range of techniques for expressing yourself, will increase your sense of mental clarity, and may even result in fewer muscle aches afterward.
