I. Lesson Proper:
INSTRUCTION: Action Dances –Choose something they like to do outside of the studio. Direct them to
perform an action that represents this activity. Provide simple choreographic directions to help your students
transform a basic action, like kicking a soccer ball or stirring cake batter, into abstract dance movements. For
example, they can use repetition, variation, inversion, or changes in level, rhythm, or tempo.
To engage students further while watching one another’s dances, have them guess what activity the
performing dancer is representing in their dance moves. To turn this into a collaborative activity, have students
work together to create a duet based on a common interest, or work as a class to combine all of the movements
into one long-phrase. (You may need to help with the transitions!)
Research indicates that staying physically active can help prevent or delay certain diseases, including some
cancers, heart disease and diabetes, and also relieve depression and improve mood. Inactivity often
accompanies advancing age, but it doesn't have to. Check with your local churches or synagogues, senior
centers, and shopping malls for exercise and walking programs. Like exercise, your eating habits are often not
good if you live and eat alone. It's important for successful aging to eat foods rich in nutrients and avoid the
empty calories in candy and sweets.
Injuries
Unintentional injuries are the leading cause of death and disability among adolescents. In 2016, over
135 000 adolescents died as a result of road traffic accidents. Many of those who died were “vulnerable road
users”, including pedestrians, cyclists or users of motorized two-wheelers. In many countries, road safety laws
need to be made more comprehensive, and enforcement of such laws needs to be strengthened. Furthermore,
young drivers need advice on driving safely, while laws that prohibit driving under the influence of alcohol and
HOPE 3
Page 2 of 12
drugs need to be strictly enforced among all age groups. Blood alcohol levels should be set lower for young
drivers than for adults. Graduated licenses for novice drivers with zero-tolerance for drink-driving are
recommended.
Drowning is also among the top 10 causes of death among adolescents – nearly 50 000 adolescents, over two
thirds of them boys, are estimated to have drowned in 2016. Teaching children and adolescents to swim is an
essential intervention to prevent these deaths.
Mental health
Depression is one of the leading causes of illness and disability among adolescents, and suicide is the
second leading cause of death in adolescents. Violence, poverty, humiliation and feeling devalued can increase
the risk of developing mental health problems.
Building life skills in children and adolescents and providing them with psychosocial support in schools and
other community settings can help promote good mental health. Programmers to help strengthen the ties
between adolescents and their families are also important. If problems arise, they should be detected and
managed by competent and caring health workers.
Violence
Interpersonal violence is the third leading cause of death in adolescents, globally, though its
prominence varies substantially by world region. It causes nearly a third of all adolescent male deaths in low-
and middle-income countries of the WHO Region of the Americas. Globally, nearly one in three adolescent
girls aged 15 – 19 years (84 million) has been a victim of emotional, physical and/or sexual violence
perpetrated by their husband or partner.
Promoting nurturing relationships between parents and children early in life, providing training in life skills,
and reducing access to alcohol and firearms can help to prevent injuries and deaths due to violence. Effective
and empathetic care for adolescent survivors of violence including ongoing support can help with the physical
and psychological consequences.
HIV/AIDS
An estimated 2.1 million adolescents were living with HIV in 2016; the great majority in the WHO
African Region. Although the overall number of HIV-related deaths has been decreasing since the peak in
2006, estimates suggest that this is not yet the case among adolescents. This reflects the fact that most of
today’s adolescents were born before prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV by antiretroviral
therapy became widespread. However, a substantial proportion of HIV-positive adolescents are unaware of
their status, and many of those who are aware of their status do not receive effective, long-term antiretroviral
treatment.
One of the specific targets of the health Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 3) is that by 2030 there
should be an end to the epidemics of AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria and neglected tropical diseases, hepatitis,
water-borne diseases and other communicable diseases. Given the high prevalence of HIV in many countries,
to achieve this target, adolescents will need to be central to control efforts.
Young people need to know how to protect themselves from HIV infection and must have the means to
do so. This includes being able to obtain condoms to prevent sexual transmission of the virus and clean needles
and syringes for those who inject drugs. Better access to HIV testing and counseling, and stronger subsequent
links to HIV treatment services for those who test HIV positive, are also needed.

Better access to contraceptive information and services can reduce the number of girls becoming
pregnant and giving birth at too young an age. Laws that are enforced that specify a minimum age of marriage
at 18 can help.
Girls who do become pregnant need access to quality antenatal care. Where permitted by law,
adolescents who opt to terminate their pregnancies should have access to safe abortion.
Physical activity
Physical activity provides fundamental health benefits for adolescents, including improved cardiorespiratory
and muscular fitness, bone health, maintenance of a healthy body weight, and psychosocial benefits. WHO
recommends for adolescents to accumulate at least 60 minutes of moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical
activity daily, which may include play, games, sports, but also activity for transportation (such as cycling and
walking), or physical education.
Globally, only 1 in 5 adolescents are estimated to meet these guidelines. Prevalence of inactivity is high across
all WHO regions, and higher in female adolescents as compared to male adolescents.
To increase activity levels, countries, societies and communities need to create safe and enabling environments
and opportunities for physical activity for all adolescents.
Tobacco use
The vast majority of people using tobacco today began doing so when they were adolescents. Prohibiting the
sale of tobacco products to minors (under 18 years) and increasing the price of tobacco products through
higher taxes, banning tobacco advertising and ensuring smoke-free environments are crucial. Globally, at least
1 in 10 adolescents aged 13 to 15 years uses tobacco, although there are areas where this figure is much higher.
Cigarette smoking seems to be decreasing among younger adolescents in some high-income countries.
Rights of adolescents
The rights of children (people under 18 years of age) to survive, grow and develop are enshrined in
international legal documents. In 2013, the Committee on the Rights of the Child (CRC), which oversees the
child rights convention, published guidelines on the right of children and adolescents to the enjoyment of the
highest attainable standard of health, and a General Comment on realizing the rights of children during
adolescence was published in 2016. It highlights states’ obligations to recognize the special health and
development needs and rights of adolescents and young people.
The Convention on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) also sets out the rights of
women and girls to health and adequate health care.
Hip-Hop dancing and Aerobics work out helps to prevent health issues.
Aerobic exercise reduces the risk of many conditions, including obesity, heart disease, high blood
pressure, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, stroke and certain types of cancer. Weight-bearing aerobic
exercises, such as walking, help decrease the risk of osteoporosis
Aerobic exercise is any type of cardiovascular conditioning. It can include activities like brisk walking,
swimming, running, or cycling. You probably know it as “cardio.” By definition, aerobic exercise means “with
oxygen.” Your breathing and heart rate will increase during aerobic activities.
Kinds of Breakdancing
Top Rock
Top Rock is a style of breakdancing that is performed in an upright position. Top Rock moves are generally
easier for beginners to master and are frequently used as warm-ups for experienced break-dancers. Top Rock
style may include power stepping, step-hops, and side-stepping.
Foot Work
Fancy footwork is another important element in the breakdancing community. Footwork is performed while
standing and includes a number of different dance counts. Break-dancers may perform footwork based on
counts ranging from 2 steps to 12 steps. Kicks, spins, and shuffles are also important in breakdancing footwork.
Drop Moves
Break-dancers are known for their moves that involve sudden changes from dancing on their feet to performing
movements on the floor. These moves are known as drops. Drops can include knee, sweep, thread, corkscrew
and coin drops. Drops are any means of going from your feet to your knees or body.
Body Moves
Floor Rocks or body moves are dance moves that are completed with a vast majority of your body touching the
floor. Break-dancers may perform scissors, worms, body glides or swimming movements. A majority of these
moves are completed on the belly.
Power Moves
HOPE 3
Page 6 of 12
If you have ever seen a dancer spinning on their head, this is what is referred to as a power move. Power moves
are difficult to perform and need to be performed with 100 percent accuracy in order to achieve high marks
during a breakdancing competition. Many break-dancers may adopt one of these moves as their signature
move. These may include head spins, windmills, flares, backspins, and halos.
End Moves
The end of a breakdancing routine may be signified by the use of a freeze or suicide move. Freezes may include
an air chair, headstand, flag, or elbow freeze. A dancer holds this movement for a few seconds at the end of a
routine. Suicide is another type of breakdancing move that involves a move where a dancer pretends to fall
down. The movement may look uncontrolled or painful but in reality, it is just a memorable way to end a
routine. Suicides may include a pencil spin, coin drop or head flip.
3. Liquid Dance, as its name implies, Liquid Dance is a fluid and graceful dance with a focus on the arms and
hands. It may include some forms of pantomime and advanced dancers will use a range of body
movements.
5. Funk, which is a fusion of Disco and Soul, uses a mixture of fluid and sharp movements and is often highly
choreographed. Locking and Popping are also often incorporated into this dance style. Funk dancing is the
perfect fusion of styles, incorporating jazz roots into a melting pot of hip hop, break, popping, and locking,
along with another fashionable dance genre.

● See your doctor for a check-up if you have a medical condition, are overweight, are over 40 years of age or haven’t
exercised regularly for a long time.
● If you have a pre-existing problem or injury especially to the foot, ankle or lower back, consult your doctor before starting.
● Choose a dance style that is appropriate for you. Have a basic awareness of your own body and of your own
personal limits and boundaries. For example, high impact dance styles that involve jumping and vigorous
movements are not appropriate for a person with arthritis.
● Warm-up thoroughly before you start dancing and include stretches. This is important in preparing the body
for dancing.
● Cool down after a dance session and stretch again.
● Drink plenty of water before, during and after dancing.
● Wear layers of clothing that you can take off as your body warms up.
● Wear professionally fitted shoes appropriate to your style of dance. Proper dance shoes distribute load, absorb
impact, and support your foot.
● Don’t push yourself too far or too fast, especially if you are a beginner.
● Concentrate on correct posture and your dance technique. The way a dancer connects one movement to
another must be technically correct so as not to twist the body incorrectly, or strain a muscle.
● Talk with your dance instructor if you have a problem or injury. They may be able to modify the move and
teach you a variation to reduce the risk factors.
● Sit down and watch, sometimes you can learn more from watching than actually doing something for the first
time.
● Make sure you take sufficient rest between dance sessions, especially if you are new to dancing or are not very
fit. This will help minimize muscle soreness or stiffness .
