    HARMONY

    •The sound of two


    or more
    1. Body
    • refers to what is being used to perform. This
    includes all parts, shapes, and figures made
    by the body, and their relationship with the
    other elements.
    • When analyzing the body, one may identify
    what body parts were used; Is it an individual
    part or the whole body? Or it may be several
    parts or a whole system (e.g. muscles, bones,
    and breathing).
    2. Action

    • pertains to the movements that the dancer performs,


    which includes the dance steps, facial expressions, and
    gestures.
    • Action is divided into two: locomotor and non-locomotor
    movements. Locomotor movements are actions
    wherein the body travels from one location to another
    (e.g. walking, running, hopping), while non-locomotor
    movements do not cause the body to move to another
    space (e.g. twist, bend, stretch).
    3. Space
    • is the relationship of the dancer to another dancer and
    the area where the dance occurs.
    • The space can be analyzed through the place where
    the dancer is, whether they are dancing on a spot
    (personal space) or through the space (general
    space).
    • It can also be described by the size of the space being
    used (i.e. small, large, narrow, wide). Their proximity to
    other dancers or objects is also considered (near or
    far), as well as their positioning (e.g. in front, behind,
    beside).
    4. Time
    • is the rhythm, metered or free, in dance. This includes the
    timing of actions and patterns.
    • Time is divided into three kinds: clock time, sensed
    time, and event-sequence.
    • Clock time is based on units of seconds, minutes, and/or
    hours.
    • Sensed time is moving based on others’ timing (e.g.
    waving only after another dancer waves).
    • And event-sequence is triggered by internal or external
    signals (e.g. cheerleaders change cheers if the team is in
    offense or defense in sports).
    5. Energy

    • is how dance movements happen. This helps


    convey the emotion of the routine.
    For example, a dance meant to be gentle is
    slow, whereas an exciting dance is usually fast
    and has swift movements. Additionally, a
    routine can be described through the energy
    qualities, such as wild, light, timid, smooth,
    tight, loose, etc.
