1. How to follow the rhythm when dancing square dance
1.1. In fact, dancing tests everyone’s physical quality. Some people may be out of breath after dancing for a while, not to mention dancing fast-paced dance, which may really make them out of breath. Therefore, in addition to exercising, we should also pay attention to the supply of camp in our daily life. After all, it will not be good for people not to exercise for three days, but the consequences of not eating for three days can be serious. This shows the importance of nutrition, which is more important in the middle-aged and old people.
1.2. Another important point in the process of dancing is the control of breath. This principle is the same as the principle of adjusting breathing when running. Breathing is symmetrical, and people will also appear relaxed. They will not be in a hurry because of tension, and there will be no pressure from slow dance to fast dance. In order to better control your breathing, you can take more deep breaths in your daily life.
1.3 when dancing, you should pay attention to the gradual progress from slow to urgent, from slow to fast. Don’t change the rhythm too fast or too much, and it’s better not to make the music too loud, because it’s easy to disturb the dancer’s attention and make it difficult for the dancer to concentrate on dancing.
2. What if I can’t keep up with the rhythm when I dance square dance
2.1. Choose your favorite music
Because you will listen to it many times, you should choose your favorite rhythm when choosing music. When you dance with music that can’t move you, it’s hard to dance with your soul. Choose the one you like and listen to it repeatedly until the music keeps reverberating in your ears. Feel it with every part of your body.
2.2. Feel music seriously
Listen to this piece of music again and try to feel its order with your body. Then, play this piece of music again, focus on the rhythm and feel it again. Feel your heart beating and muscles shaking with the beat.
2.3. Understand music rhythm
Put this piece of music back on and pay attention to the power of music. Pay attention to the change of rhythm, the beating of melody and other interesting and attractive elements. Imagine how you would express these things with your own body. If you already know the basic steps of dance, you can try to go through them in your mind.
3. When is the square dance good
Don’t do activities too early in the morning. It’s better to have the sun come out. Especially in autumn and winter, it’s better to wait until the fog has cleared before starting dancing. In the afternoon, it is better to stay at 4-6 o’clock, and in the evening, it is necessary to stay half an hour to one hour after dinner.
If parks, forests and other places are used as practice places, it is more important to avoid night time and early morning before sunrise. It is not advisable to “dance at the sound of chickens”, because the surrounding trees, flowers and plants have not photosynthesis, and emit a large amount of carbon dioxide, reducing oxygen, which is not conducive to health. The general principle is to adjust in time with the changes of solar terms and weather, and not to be too mechanical.
Do not take vigorous exercise within two hours before going to bed, especially for the elderly. Because it is early to go to bed, too much vigorous exercise before going to bed may easily cause difficulty in falling asleep, or fatigue, and reduce the quality of sleep.

What problems should square dancers be alert to
1. Prolapse of lumbar intervertebral disc
The cause of lumbar disc herniation has a lot to do with the degenerative changes of the intervertebral disc. It is necessary to avoid the activities of bending the waist frequently.
Suggestion: when dancing square dance, properly control the bending of the waist, especially when bending forward, control the speed, strength and amplitude, or don’t do it at all.
2. Shoulder pain
If the shoulder is stressed for a long time, or is pulled and sprained during exercise, the muscles, ligaments and other soft tissues around the shoulder joint will be damaged, resulting in pain, adhesion and limited movement. In the process of arm lifting, the rotator cuff tissue above the joint is pressed below the acromion, and repeated friction may cause inflammatory reactions, leading to pain.
Suggestion: lift your arms slowly and don’t rush. The rotation of the arm over the shoulder should be avoided because it is easy to cause acromion impact and rotator cuff damage.
3. Cervical spondylosis
If the head and neck are in a fixed single posture for a long time, such as working with the head down for a long time, it is easy to lead to cervical muscle strain, and then induce cervical spondylosis.
Suggestion: when dancing square dance, pay attention to turning your head slowly to prevent syncope; At the same time, do less head bending movements to reduce the pressure on the neck.
