What are the skills needed to perform dance?

Answer 1

I would say the most important physical skill is Core Strength. If your core strength is good you will be able to exert your maximum force to perform a move correctly. Core strength improves balance which improves plies, spins etc.

Core strength also improves flexibility as your stomach muscles are used to exert maximum force, for example, while doing leg kicks if you didn't use your muscles to lift your leg it would simply have no split what so ever.

Other physical skills are alignment and coordination. These are both examples of skills that use movement memory and body awareness.

The list of skills in Dance could go on for a while and are all linked together such as core strength is related to balance and flexibility as movement memory is related to coordination and alignment. No dancer, in my opinion, can possibly perform the correct moves without a good core body strength.
