Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive guide to the art of dancing, specifically focusing on the graceful movements of the upper body, known as "Port de Bras." The author, a highly respected dance instructor, delves into the principles of arm carriage, posture, and expression, drawing upon his deep knowledge of the classical ballet tradition, particularly as practiced in Russia. He emphasizes the importance of relaxation, slow, controlled movements, and the use of the shoulder joint for creating a fluid and dynamic arm style. He also explains the significance of the "law of opposition" which involves coordinating arm movements with the placement of the feet, to maintain balance and create beautiful lines and planes. Beyond the technical aspects of movement, the book explores the relationship between the upper body, the head, and the trunk, suggesting that their movements should be harmonious, enhancing the overall visual impact of the dance. The author connects the art of dance to artistic expression, emphasizing the role of music in inspiring and shaping the dancer's movements. By combining these technical and expressive elements, the author reveals the deeper significance of Port de Bras as an art form, transforming the dancer into a sculpted, animated figure capable of expressing profound emotions through movement.
