Maintenance of Latin dance shoes:
Since the sole of the national standard dance shoes is flipped, the main function is to ensure the smooth travel of the dance, the need for the softness of the dance for the dance, the need for anti-slip, and the reason for protecting the floor of the dance floor; therefore, it is best not to stick the water, fur. After a long time of wet water, it is easy to get out of the sole, and it is easy to stick to various garbage on the ground after wet water. After wearing a certain amount of time, no matter how to protect the shoes, the bottom of the shoes will make the mixture of the wax and various small particles of the field into a hard bottom, which will affect the softness and slip resistance of the dance shoes. Dance shoes with a steel brush or non-slip oil, which makes the soles relatively soft and anti-slip.
The role of dance shoes:
1. In addition to the attractive appearance of Latin dance shoes, its heel slope can also adjust the student’s standing position just right, so that the students lean forward and gradually change the habit of hunchback;
2. In addition, the low-heeled rear heel can let the master grasp the strength of the toe and make more intimate contact with the floor while the students lean forward, thus understanding the concept that “Latin dance is the art of the floor”;
3. Because the bottom of the Latin dance shoes are basically leather, so in the activity will feel very soft, comfortable, will not feel the feet stiff, limited activities and the soft sole can highlight the curvature of the students’ back, showing more Perfect posture
4. The bottom of the leather dance shoes can also play the role of anti-slip, anti-smashing, on the relatively smooth ground, you can use the brush to brush the bottom of the shoe to the burr, in order to play a non-slip effect, and vice versa.
Since most of the students pay more attention to the appearance of the shoes, sometimes they will buy some shoes that look very beautiful, and therefore ignore the real role of the Latin shoes. If the bottom of the shoe is hard leather, then the activity is relatively blunt, the posture cannot be better, and the dance will be greatly reduced. Therefore, I hope that parents and students, when buying Latin shoes, should pay attention to the combination of beauty and practicality, and give full play to the role of Latin dance shoes, so as to better display their own learning and create a more beautiful dance.
