Balance and the body’s centre are not isolated ideas in Colin James’s congress analysis: he relates them to the movement of energy and to the way parts of the body work together. A model of linked triangles provides one way of thinking about these relationships. The lecture therefore gives viewers a conceptual approach to Latin mechanics as well as a dance-specific subject.
Rumba, Cha Cha, Samba and Paso Doble are considered in the material. Teachers may find the explanations useful when discussing why a movement works, while dancers can use them to reflect on the mechanics underlying their own technique. This is an English-language lecture collection from the 2007 congress, presented on MP4 videos.
