 LESSON

In today’s world dominated by computers, a great deal of change has happened that have taken
away the very essence of our physicality as human beings: the opportunity to move. A massive shift
from physical labor to office jobs, engagement in passive forms of entertainment and lifestyle are just
but natural consequences of the luxury offered by the advancements in science and technology.
Increased weight gain has led leading to obesity, development of heart disease, diabetes, and
certain types of cancer just some of the eventual disadvantages of physical inactivity. This is the very
reason why you will be introduced to cheer dancing and contemporary dancing as means to achieve
healthy living.
It is fitting and timely that these lessons are included in your studies so that as early as now,
before you enter the work force, you will be able to make informed decisions regarding your lifestyle
choices and practices that will help you become a fit, healthy and productive member of society

WHAT IS CONTEMPORARY DANCE

Contemporary danced emerged in the 20th century as
dancers strived to exhibit more personal expression in
their dancing. It was a way to stray from the more
traditional and structured styles. Breaking the
conventional style of dance, contemporary focuses on the
freedom of movement.
When performing, dancers focus on connecting their mind and body through fluid dance moves. This
allows dancers to explore emotions, and use their natural energy to portray personal expression in
their dance techniques.
There is no rule of thumb to what type of elements their performance can include, but you will find a
combination of techniques often ranging from ballet, jazz, modern, break dancing and even yoga and
Pilates.

WHAT IS CHEERDANCE

Cheerdance is coined from the words, cheer and dance. To cheer is to shout out words or
phrases that may help motivates and boost the morale of a playing team and perform better during a
game. Dance, on the other hand, is a physical activity where one expresses emotions or gestures while
performing bodily movements usually in time with rhythm.
 Cheerdancing rooted from cheerleading. Cheerleading is the performance of a routine,
usually dominated by gymnastic skills such as jumps; tumbling skills, lifts and tosses combined with
shouting of cheers and yells to lead to the crowd to cheer for a certain team during a game or sports. It
originated in the united State. Due to Filipinos’ love for dancing, they added more dance routine to
their cheers and came up with terms Cheerdance wherein it is a routine composed of yells and cheers,
gymnastic skills (pyramids and tosses, stunts, tumbling skills, arm and hand positions and jumps) and
dance (fusion of different dance genres). Today, cheerdancing is identified as one of the most
spectacular events in one of the biggest collegiate sports events in the country, the UAAP (University
Athletic Association of the Philippines).
