Posture

Normally any and every cartoon explicitly shows such natural and good postures many times over in the films. In the Dance-Sport one needs to maintain such postures through out the entire dance.

This comes naturally when one is happy and exited, or when having the feeling of being at the top of the world. When observing one's self in the trial room prior to buying a dress these postures are assumed naturally. Normally any and every cartoon explicitly shows such natural and good postures many times over in the films.

In the Dance-Sport one needs to maintain such postures through out the entire dance.

Exercise
Stand backing a wall, with feet together. Now touch the heels to the wall. Next is to press one's self flat against the wall. The buttocks and the back of the shoulders (shoulder blades) would be in contact with the wall in addition to the calves of the legs and the head. Next is to pull in the stomach and pull the shoulders further back and to the side. Get a feel of this position. Now keeping this position, relaxing the knees and the ankle move away from the wall, without moving the feet. This will need the knees and ankles to be relaxed and bend slightly, and as a result the heel is slightly lifted off the floor. The body weight shifts to the balls of the feet.

The last part is to relax a little so as to make one's self as comfortable as possible with the bare minimum changes to the posture attained.
