　　Belly dancing’s “several benefits” are the reasons why it is becoming more and more popular. “First of all, belly dancing has a very good conditioning effect on women’s physiology.； Secondly, it can improve the unobvious features of Asian women’s curves ； Moreover, belly dance can shape the body due to the increase or decrease in the amount of exercise and changes in practice methods. ； Can make the small muscle groups of your body gain strength exercise . ”Watching Guo Wei dance belly dance, in addition to the "feeling of gender dislocation", can indeed give people a good feeling. He said: "Belly dance is suitable for all kinds of people, regardless of age and gender. It doesn't matter whether you have a dance foundation or not. From my teaching experience, the more people who have no dance foundation, the better they feel after learning." ”

　　Men's dance exercise is very suitable for beer belly

　　In the eyes of most people, male belly dancing always seems a bit "nondescript." Guo Wei admitted that this is actually a wrong idea, "In the Arab countries where belly dancing originated, many coaches are men. In fact, the effect of belly dancing is more obvious for men than for women, because men have relatively stronger muscle capabilities, larger ranges when doing belly dance movements, and better control of intensity. There are sometimes boys in my class, but the number is relatively small. When women learn belly dancing, in addition to some regular dance postures, they must also match expressions and gorgeous costumes that meet the needs of the dance. ； Men mainly focus on muscle control. Some men have beer bellies. If they practice regularly, they will have good results. ”

　　Most people who have seen Guo Wei perform belly dancing will be "shocked" by his graceful dancing posture and expression, which naturally raises questions about his sexual orientation. In this regard, Guo Wei admitted: "I have been asked countless times. My life and my performance are two different things. After work, I also play ball or do some other sports. Regarding my sexual orientation, I don't care about others, and I don't want others to interfere with me. ”Guo Wei said that he never wanted others to only pay attention to his gender, “I just want to be a inheritor and make belly dance popular in the country. ”

　　The trend of belly dancing among boys is getting higher and higher

　　In Guo Wei's view, belly dancing has attracted more and more attention and praise from men: "Actually, when a boy learns belly dancing, it depends on his purpose. If it is purely for fitness and fun, he does not need to do some very coquettish movements, he only needs to practice a few basic movements of flipping and shaking. Now in my training class, the proportion of boys is getting higher and higher. ”

　　A male student surnamed Chen in Guo Wei's training class told reporters that he practiced belly dancing for the purpose of losing weight. "Because I haven't paid much attention to fitness in the past few years, my beer belly is getting bigger and bigger, and I am about to take wedding photos. My girlfriend urged me to lose weight quickly, so I thought of belly dancing to reduce my belly." ”Mr. Chen, who has been learning for more than half a month, said that during the practice, he discovered that men have innate advantages over women in belly dance such as reverse tilt, leg support and other powerful movements. “Moreover, because belly dance mainly moves the waist, abdomen and buttocks, it is indeed practical for those of us with beer bellies. The key is to persist. ”

　　belly dance class

　　Beginners: Have a solid foundation in basic skills, and then slowly integrate the complete set of dances.

　　Clothing and equipment: camisole+a delicate waist chain+a pair of tight trousers

　　Venue requirements: There are no special requirements for the venue. The living room, bathroom or bedroom can be used as a place to practice belly dancing.

　　For beginners, I suggest that you first practice the basic skills of belly dancing. Then on this basis, the complete set of dances is slowly integrated. Because the quality of basic skills will directly affect the visibility of dance movements in future performances. For some beginners, a camisole with a delicate waist chain and a pair of tight trousers is enough. Practice barefoot, or wear non-slip socks, as long as you don't wear hard-soled shoes. Intermediate and above learners can add some clothes similar to performance clothes when practicing. The costumes of real professional dancers are very gorgeous. In foreign countries, a sophisticated professional belly dance performance costume costs five to six thousand yuan, and some even cost more than ten thousand yuan.

　　Unlike other fitness methods, belly dancing has no venue requirements. When belly dancing, sometimes you just need to stand, dance your waist and abdomen, and do some quick shaking movements such as "sago". Whether it is the living room, bathroom or bedroom, it can be used as a place to practice belly dancing. The movements of belly dancing are actually very simple, which are the exercises of the waist and abdominal muscles. If you only follow one class a week, the effect will definitely not be good. The most important thing is to insist on practicing at home every day.
