17. LOCOMOTOR MOVEMENTS
-movements that allow you
to move from one point in
space to another. It is
derived from two words,
“locos” which means place
and “motor” which means
movement.

18. Step - This is the basis of all locomotor movements. It prepares
you to move in any direction you wish to go. It is defined as transfer
of weight from one foot to the other.
Run - Series of walks executed quickly in any direction
wherein only one foot stays on the ground while the other is off
the ground.
Walk - Series of steps executed by both of your feet alternately
in any direction. In executing a walk, observe that there’s this
moment when both feet are in contact with the ground while one
foot supports the weight and transfers it to the other.
Jump - This movement is simply described by having both feet lose
its contact with the ground.

19. NON-LOCOMOTOR
MOVEMENTS
• movements that are
performed in one point
in space without
transferring to another
point.
• They don’t allow you
to move from one place
to the other.

20. Flexion - It is the act of decreasing the angle of a joint.
-bend
Contraction - A muscle movement done when it shortens,
narrows and tightens using sufficient amount of energy in the
execution.
Extension - This is the opposite of flexion. You are extending if
you are increasing the angle of a joint.
- stretching
Collapse - To deliberately drop the exertion of energy into a body
segment.

4 Release - A muscle movement opposite to contraction done when it
let goes or let looses of being held into a shortening movement.

21. Recover - The opposite of collapse. This is to regain the energy
exerted into a body segment.
Twist - To move a body segment from an axis halfway front or
back or quarter to the right or left as in the twisting of the neck
allowing the head to face right or left and the like.
Rotation - To rotate is to move a body segment allowing it to
complete a circle with its motion. It’s not only limited to
circumduction which is done in ball and socket joints.
Rotation can also be done in wrists, waist, knees and ankles.
Turn - To move in a turning movement with a base of support,
usually a pointed foot, the other raised, while equilibrium is
maintained until the completion of the turn.

22. Basic 2/4 Time Folk Dance Steps

23. ELEMENTS OF MOVEMENTS IN SPACE
1. Rhythm - Regular recurrence of a beat. It may be
regular or irregular. In basic music, rhythm is regular
and metered (2/4,3/4 or 4/4). They be slow, moderate or
fast. This element of rhythm is called tempo. Music
dictates the speed of movements we create.
2. Level - This refers to the level of movement. It may
be low, when knees are fully or slightly bent when
executing movement; medium, if knees are normally
straight when executing movement; high, if the heels are
raised or movements are done while off the floor.
3. Range - This element refers to the scope of movement
execution. It is dictated by the space provided. If the
space is wide, then movements shall be wide and big. If
space is limited, then movements shall be small and
limited too.

24. 4. Floor Patter/Design - This refers to the
designs created on the floor by the bodies
of dancers.
5. They may be geometric or non-geometric
formations.
6. Direction - This element adds to variety of
movement. They may be performed forward,
backward, sideward or even upward.
7. Focus - This is the focal point of dancer’s
attention while moving in space.
