 WHAT IS IT

Cheer dance – is a coined from the words, cheer and dance. To cheer is to
shout words or phrases that may help motivate and boost the morale of a
playing team and perform better during a game.
Dance – A physical activity where one expresses emotions or gestures
while performing bodily movements usually in time rhythm.

Cheer dancing rooted from cheerleading. A performance of a routine,

usually dominated by gymnastic skills such as jumps, tumbling skills,
lifts and tosses combined with shouting of cheers and yells to lead the
crowd to cheer for a certain team during a game or sport. It originated in
the UNITED STATES. Due to Filipinos’ love for dancing, they added
more dance routines to their cheers and came up with the term
cheer dance wherein it is a routines composed of yells and cheers,
gymnastic skills (pyramid and tosses, stunts, tumbling skills, arm and hand
positions and jumps), and dance (fusion of different dance genres). Today,
cheer dancing is identified as one of the most spectacular events in one of
the biggest collegiate sports events in the country, the UAAP (University
Athletic Association of the Philippines).

Classifications of Dance
A. Interpretative Dance – Dancer are meant to be interpreted for
performances and staging.
B. Creative Dance – Dances are created out of two approaches, the
elemental approach and creative approach.
II. Elemental Approach in the Creation of Dance Elements of Dance
1.SPACE

a. Floor pattern – Patterns created by the body as it moves through space

examples of which include lines, letters, shapes or polygons, and other
geometric patterns.
b. Direction – The course or way in which movement is directed with
reference to the frontal plane of the body.
c. Focus – Point of attention by either the performer or the audience. It may
be a personal focus or general focus.
d. Dimension- How performers appear with reference to the audience’s
view. The nearer the performer, the bigger he would appear; the farther
the performer, the smaller he would appear. Dimension has something to
do with perspective.
e. Balance - It may be static or dynamic in nature. Static balance is a
balance at rest, while dynamic balance is balance in motion.
f. Levels – They are classified as low, middle and high with the lowest level
the basis of middle and high levels.
g. Mass and Volume – The number of bodies performing through space.
h. Contours and Shapes – Shapes and forms created by the body as they
move through space
2. TIME – Dance are both space and time art because it makes use of space
and spends time as movements are executed.

9
 3. ENERGY- Pertains to the amount of efforts exerted in the performance of
dance or dance movements and combinations.
B. With reference to the amount of energy used in the performance of
movement:
1. pendular – swinging and swaying
2. percussive – strong, big, abrupt, and striking movements
3. vibratory – series of rapid and quickly executed small percussive
movements
4. sustained – movement with no preparation, beginning, and unnoticeable
end

C. With reference to the application of energy in the performance of

movement:
1. Locomotor Movement – Allows one movement from one point to
another. 2. Non-Locomotor Movement - Performed in one point in space
without transferring to another point.

III. IMPROVISATION – The art of creating movements that the body is not
familiar with. It is exploring potential movements which can later be refined and
transformed into dance movements.
IV. TECHNIQUE and TECHNIQUE DEVELOPMENT – Is the exceptional
way of performing or executing a certain improvised movement so that the body
will adapt to it and later as it adapts, will be executed automatically and
effortlessly.

 Now, let us read and understand
the facts about nutrition for better
health and fitness!

Determining Nutrient Needs

Nutrients are chemical compounds in food that are used by the body to
function properly and maintain health. Examples include proteins, fats,
carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals.
Macronutrients are nutrients that provide calories or energy and are
required in large amounts to maintain body functions and carry out the activities
of daily life. There are three broad classes of macronutrient: proteins,
carbohydrates and fats.

Carbohydrates serve several key functions in your body. They

provide you with energy for daily tasks and are the primary fuel source for
your brain's high energy demands. Fiber is a special type of carb that helps
promote good digestive health and may lower your risk of heart disease and
diabetes.
Protein has many roles in your body. It helps repair and build your
body's tissues, allows metabolic reactions to take place and coordinates bodily
functions. In addition to providing your body with a structural framework,
proteins also maintain proper pH and fluid balance.
Fats are a type of nutrient that you get from your diet. It is essential to
eat some fats, though it is also harmful to eat too many. The fats you eat give
your body energy that it needs to work properly. During exercise, your body
uses calories from carbohydrates you have eaten.
1. Saturated fat: A fat that contains only saturated fatty acids, is
solid at room temperature, and comes chiefly from animal food products. Some
examples of saturated fat are butter, lard, meat fat, solid shortening, palm oil,
and coconut oil. Saturated fat tends to raise the level of cholesterol in the
blood.
2. Unsaturated fats contain one or more double or triple bonds
between the molecules. These fats are liquid at room temperature in oil form.
They also occur in solid foods. This group breaks down further into two
categories, called monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats.
3. Monounsaturated fat is a type of dietary fat. It is one of the
healthy fats, along with polyunsaturated fat. Monounsaturated fats are
liquid at room temperature, but start to harden when chilled. Saturated fats and
trans fats are solid at room temperature.

11
 4. Polyunsaturated fat is a type of dietary fat. It is one of the
healthy fats, along with monounsaturated fat. Polyunsaturated fat is found
in plant and animal foods, such as salmon, vegetable oils, and some nuts and
seeds.
Micronutrients are one of the major groups of nutrients your body
needs. They include vitamins and minerals. Vitamins are necessary for energy
production, immune function, blood clotting and other functions. Meanwhile,
minerals play an important role in growth, bone health, fluid balance and several
other processes.
Water, a substance composed of the chemical elements hydrogen and
oxygen and existing in gaseous, liquid, and solid states. It is one of the most
plentiful and essential of compounds. A tasteless and odorless liquid at room
temperature, it has the important ability to dissolve many other substances .
12 Steps to Manage Your Weight
1. Build more lean muscle. Maintain, or even increase, your metabolism by
continuing to build lean muscle
2. Fight off hunger with more filling foods
3. Avoid temptation
4. Count calories
5. Plan your meals in advance
6. Consider adding minutes to your exercise plan
7. Measure your portions
8. Weigh yourself daily
“Energy balance” is the relationship between “energy in” (food
calories taken into the body through food and drink) and “energy out”
(calories being used in the body for our daily energy requirements).
A calorie is a unit of energy. In nutrition, calories refer to the energy
people get from the food and drink they consume, and the energy they use in
physical activity. Calories are listed in the nutritional information on all food
packaging. Many weight loss programs center around reducing the intake of
calories.

NUTRITIONAL SIDE OF CHEERDANCE AND CONTEMPORARY DANCING

1. NUTRITION AND WEIGHT - Diet and body weight are related to health
status. Good nutrition is important to the growth and development. A
healthful diet also helps people reduce their risks for many health
conditions, including: overweight and obesity.
2. GAINING WEIGHT - is an increase in body weight. This can involve an
increase in muscle mass, fat deposits, excess fluids such as water or
other factors. Weight gain can be a symptom of a serious medical
condition.

12
 3. LOSING WEIGHT -in the context of medicine, health, or physical fitness,
refers to a reduction of the total body mass, by a mean loss of fluid,
body fat (adipose tissue), or lean mass (namely bone mineral deposits,
muscle, tendon, and other connective tissue).
4. BASAL METABOLIC RATE (BMR) -is often used interchangeably with
resting metabolic rate (RMR). While BMR is a minimum number of
calories required for basic functions at rest, RMR — also called resting
energy expenditure (REE) — is the number of calories that your body
burns while it's at rest.
5. The thermic effect of food (TEF), defined as the increase in metabolic
rate after ingestion of a meal, has been studied extensively, but its role in
body weight regulation is controversial .
6. The thermic effect of physical activity (TEPA) is the amount of energy
burned during all physical activity, which includes everything from
standing up from a seated position to the most intense high-intensity
interval training workout (and everything in between).
7. Maximizing food consumption just means eating more, it could even
refer to not changing the amount of food you eat but instead substituting
the type of food you regularly consume to reach an objective like
lowering blood pressure, lowering blood sugar level or just losing weight .
