Introduction to friction and its importance in executing dance moves, specifically focusing on the glissade.
Explanation of how friction aids in creating both horizontal momentum and vertical elevation during movements like jete.
Emphasis on using friction from the floor to enhance vertical elevation while maintaining horizontal movement.
Importance of finding the center line of the body for balance and support during dance preparations, particularly before a pirouette.
Discussion on utilizing elevation and momentum together to enhance movement dynamics.
Techniques for Achieving Movement
Description of how friction against the earth contributes to achieving vertical momentum through various movements such as chasse.
Exploration of maintaining alignment with the center line while allowing for faster movements that may deviate slightly from traditional forms.
Video description
Join us as we explore the physics of dance with artists from Dallas Black Dance Theatre.
This video is one of five parts in this playlist. You may watch the videos in any order.
This workshop consists of 5 videos created by Dallas Black Dance Theatre. Thank you to these artists for contributing this amazing work:
Nycole Ray - Dallas Black Dance Theatre's, DBDT:Encore! Artistic Director
Carmen Cage - Artist
Floyd McLean, Jr. - Artist

These videos are best suited for upper middle school and high school students.
Have you ever considered the math and science involved in something as artistic as dance? Physics especially contributes to dance, and you can learn more about the following properties in the video:
Part 3:
Friction, Horizontal and Vertical Momentum, Torque, Center of Gravity, Inertia, Newton's 3rd Law of Motion, Angular Momentum
TEKS:
Science - 6.8A-B, 6.11B, 7.7, 8.6A-C, P.4B, P.4D, P.5A, I.4C, I.4E, PT. 6C-D, PT.7Aiii, PT.7B, PT.8, PT.9D, AP.6D
Career and Technical Education: HS.B.ACM.20A-B, HS.O.PT.7B, HS.O.PT.9C-D
Some of the videos have slides that say 'Pause for More'. These slides contain more in depth information for the curious minds who are interested. Simply pause the video on that slide, and press play when you are ready to continue.
Coming soon...
Worksheets will soon be available to couple with this playlist. The worksheets will be created for 6-8th grade, high school physics, and AP high school physics. Link will become available when worksheets are published here.
