A Study of Dance Teaching from a Psychosomatic Perspective

Abstract

As a special art form, dance takes the body as a carrier, and through body coordination and cooperation, it accomplishes a variety of elegant or difficult movements to convey thoughts, emotions and artistic values. In addition to supporting physiological functions and body organization, the body also covers psychological factors such as emotion and will. Based on this, European and American scholars have proposed the system of physical and mental science, which has had a profound impact on dance teaching. The study introduces the connotation of body and mind studies, analyzes the similarities and differences between body and mind training and dance training, and proposes the application value of body and mind studies in dance teaching.
