Dance Team

The dance team Twin Cedars Community School Board needs to decide to fund the school dance team. Twin Cedars is a small country school with 500 K - 12 students who have never experienced the benefit of having a dance team. Two years ago, three students of Twin Cedars met with a dance coach Shannon Smith (a graduate of Twin Cedars) and suggested that the school should have a dance team. Smith taught the new dance team and volunteered to choreograph.

Due to the lack of available literature and terms, it is difficult for dance teams to study. Also, the dance team is an ambiguous term. The study showed a common recommendation for the spiritual team, the spiritual team, the dance team and the Ponpon team. The current discussion on the confusion against the label and whether this is an event or a sport is still imminent but one of the things that leaves the same is that it is one of the fastest growing areas for women to participate in (12).

The phenomenon of the currently appearing dance team has witnessed the increasing popularity of participants in sports events and is known for pre-game and half game competitions. The dance team consists of competitive dancers who need to practice dancing. Participants also need to incorporate specific choreography (modern, hip hop, jazz etc.) and technical skills (jumps, kicks and other gymnastics skills) into their daily work. Extremely competitive and requires hours of rehearsal to master the exact move coordinated with other team members.

The number of women participating in the dance competition is increasing. Long rehearsals, the use of mirrors and dance costumes put the dance team participants at risk of physical image problems (15, 16, 17, 18). Also worthy of attention is the presence of wearing dance costumes that can be used for objectivation by either gaze, observation, or "check" by appearance (17, 19, 10). As more and more women participate in dance competitions, further investigation of the psychosocial factors incidental to this new campaign requires investigations, including assessment of the potential for potential body image interference. The purpose of this research was to investigate the perception of dance team participants, fitness participants, and non-dancers in college students.
