Latin dances mainly include rumba, cha-cha, samba, cowboy and bullfighting.

The following is an analysis of their technical style:

(1) rumba style features:

Rumba dance spread to Latin America with the slave trade in Africa in the16th century. The creative inspiration of its movements comes from the rooster's walking towel, resulting in the Chilean folk dance "Cuenca". The music of rumba dance is lingering and romantic, and its dance style is gentle, charming and lyrical. Due to the different tones of music, each rumba dance shows different emotions, but generally speaking, rumba dance mostly shows the love life of couples. Therefore, accurate limb control, good flexibility and speed of movement are the prerequisites for dancing rumba well.

(2) Tea style characteristics:

The cha-cha dance is inspired by the way penguins walk. It's a dance that imitates the walking posture of penguins. It has a humorous and fancy style, and the dance steps and arm movements are closely coordinated, giving people a playful and neat feeling. Therefore, clean footwork and fast and accurate swing arm become the focus of cha-cha dance training, and rapid rotation and movement changes need strong trunk strength as support, so core strength training is essential. In addition, in order to accurately require four beats and five moves, there are many variations of emotional expression in competitive sports, often 1 beat, or the speed of half-beat and half-beat is in sharp contrast, so it puts forward higher requirements for athletes' quick response, strength, movement speed and stability support. You must pay attention in training.

(3) Samba style characteristics:

Samba is the strongest and most distinctive Latin dance. It originated in Africa and is a ritual dance formed by the cross-integration of Latin American and Indian dances. Later, in the long process of development, especially after the public performance at the carnival in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, its subtle beat and strong feelings attracted Brazilians, and gradually lost its ceremonial characteristics, thus forming a kind of samba dance of "street dance" and "cafe dance", which is characterized by lively and moving dance, swaying and rough movements, ups and downs, bold and agile dance steps and strong appeal. Samba dance is a progressive dance in Latin dance, because it moves on the field along the dance line. Another major feature of samba dance is its strong action and strong ups and downs, which makes people feel happy and happy. By observing the training of Latin dancers, it is not difficult to find that the fluency and sense of ups and downs of China dancers need to be strengthened. In order to perfect samba style, it is necessary to strengthen the training of athletes' toe extension support strength, rapid displacement strength, body center of gravity stability, upper limb flexibility, movement speed, ankle-knee joint stability, surrounding muscle strength and hip joint flexibility.

(4) The characteristics of bullfighting style:

Bullfighting dance originated in Spain, accompanied by the Spanish March, and expressed in the form of dance. In the dance action of bullfighting, the male partner imitates the matador, and the female partner symbolizes the tent in the matador's hand. Therefore, men must remain strong and heroic. The style of bullfighting dance is bright and charming, and the dance movements are magnificent and powerful. Dance steps forward to show the strength and heroism of men, which requires strong strength and quality as the foundation, such as strengthening the strength control of upper limb shoulder straps. To realize the rapid development of dance steps, it is necessary to train athletes' core strength, namely waist and abdomen strength, explosiveness, agility and coordination. In addition, it is very necessary to train the flexibility of upper limbs, trunk and lower limbs in order to realize free and easy movements and show heroic spirit.

(5) Characteristics of cowboy style:

Swing dance originated from a tap dance performed by shepherds in the western United States. The dance moves are rough and the rhythm is exciting. With the skills of lifting the partner and shaking, it shows the shepherd's strong body. The cowboy dance is cheerful, jumping and dynamic: the dance is bold and unrestrained, the dance steps are rich and varied, and the rhythm is fast. Its strong twisting and continuous rapid rotation make people dazzled, excited and enthusiastic. Swing step, as a signature movement embodying the characteristics of swing dance, fully embodies the demand for the strength of quadriceps femoris, hamstring, ankle joint stability, calf triceps, soleus and gastrocnemius. In order to show the boldness of dancing, the upper body must keep a certain straight state, instead of bowing its head and giving up its posture, which requires the athletes' back muscles and abdominal muscles to be strong, not only to keep their posture, but also to have. Let the upper limbs move freely.

In addition, Latin dance also has the problem of male and female cooperation. In high-level competitions, there are often moments when the male partner lifts and the female partner unfolds and maintains a certain graceful posture, which puts higher demands on the strength of the male partner and the flexibility and static strength of the female partner, and should be paid attention to in training.
