Instructions
If your group's repertoire has independent ones, one of them may become excellent option for you (“Tourdion”, “Dargason”, “Bassdans”). Choose something beautiful, unusual, or that has special meaning to you (like the first one you learned).
Many dance steps and figures have their own names, and you can easily choose one of them as a name for the group. For example, Riverenza or Cadenza.
The name of the group can be the name of a location or object that is especially significant to your dance direction. It could be a river, a building or anything else. For example, “Versailles”, “Albion”, “Rio de Janeiro”. A toponym may not be an independent name, but part of it, for example, “St. Petersburg Mysteries” or “Brazilian Night.”
Ensemble folk dances It would be logical to mention in your name the nationality whose repertoire is present, or some characteristic feature this one. For example, “Celtic patterns”, “Tartan”, “Galician” or at least just Folk Dance.
The group name may reflect the dance era or theme, especially if we're talking about about ancient dances. For example, “Medivale”, “Renaissance”, “ Belle Epoque».
The name should correspond to the style of the group and the nature of the dances. The name “Zhuravushka” is suitable for a Russian folk ensemble, but not for breakdancing, and if you dance elegant and country dances, you should not be called “Round Dance of Drunken Trolls” or “Wild”. This is not so important if you are dancing only for yourself and friends, but if you are counting on a wide audience and demonstration performances, come up with a name that you will not have to change later.
note
Be sure to check if there is already a group with the same name that you came up with for yourself.
Do not forget about the principles of euphony, originality and memorability. Don't take a title longer than two or three words.
In what language you come up with and write the name of the group is up to you, but remember that it should be easy and unambiguous to read. Avoid languages with complex spelling, such as French. Then you can write and dictate this name yourself.

Coming up with a name is often the most difficult thing. It happens that the essence has already been worked out, and the text has been written (if, suppose we are talking about some kind of work of art), but the name somehow doesn’t come to mind. You have to contrive so that it not only comes up, but also more accurately conveys the essence.
Instructions
The more difficult it is to come up with a name for the group. This one is most likely located on VKontakte or other similar networks. Therefore, the name should perform several functions at once: attract attention target audience- those people who should join the group; don't scare them away; convey the concept of the group as accurately as possible, that is: what it is dedicated to, who it is intended for, what its goals are, and so on. The name should be as beautiful as possible, since we are talking about girls.
Of course, all these factors are very difficult to take into account; all this is very difficult to express in one word, one phrase, one sentence. Although it often happens that the name of a group takes up several lines in a row, usually the name corresponds to a condensed form: this way it is easier to perceive. Therefore, when choosing, take this into account. It is difficult to give examples without knowing the specifics of the group.
You can arrange a survey in the group itself, while only your acquaintances or friends are in it, while the promotion of the group itself (if you need this very promotion at all) has not yet begun. Ask what name they would prefer to give the group? You can make up possible names in advance and invite your friends to choose the best one, thereby forcing them to join in the discussion. The collective mind always solves problems faster.
You need to choose the overall “tone” of the name. Nowadays, “glamorous” names are very common, since glamor itself is in fashion. Whether you need it or not is your choice. If the group lived up to that name, wouldn't it? But if you intend to discuss serious things, and name the group in the tradition of glamor, then they simply will not understand you. If you want to be serious, be so. And you can have fun not only in a “glamorous” way.
Show your personality in the group name. There is no need to copy the names of others. However, don’t go too far so that it doesn’t look like you’re “showing off.” Everything should be in moderation. Reflect the essence of your group clearly, cheerfully, so that there is nothing. Stick strictly to the topic you have chosen. There is no need to “spread your thoughts throughout the tree” and push into the title all those micro-topics that you and your girlfriends are discussing. Choose one - and let all the other topics of conversation be woven into this one.

- what is the name of the group
Choosing a name musical group, as a rule, is the responsibility of the author and leader. Usually the name comes by itself, since the author imagines the direction of the repertoire and the images of the performers in advance. But in some cases the search for a sonorous short name is drawn out and takes considerable time.
Instructions
If you are an author and have not yet selected full composition, find the name using this principle. Write down all the requirements for the repertoire of the future group: style, complexity, genre, number and gender of performers, timbres, etc. Write each characteristic on a new line. Just in case, write down the translations of these characteristics into other languages known to you: French, Spanish, Latin.
On another sheet of paper, write down in the same column the requirements for the subject matter of the texts, philosophy, and in general everything that you will express in the project through words. Next to it, write similar translations into other languages.
Cut the sheets into columns. Combine words from all three sheets with each other. If necessary, change the form of the word, make nouns adjectives, and vice versa. Use words from different to achieve optimal sound.
Eliminate list sheets and columns one at a time, leaving only two words. The procedure takes a long time, but rest assured: among this huge variety of combinations there will definitely be a name that you like.
If already typed, then as a name you can use the sum of dates, first or last names or surnames, elements of the names of hometowns. Write everything down common features in several columns according to the first principle and combine them until you find a name that suits you completely. As in the previous method, use the same names on different ones to increase the number of options and expand the selection.
In any case, before making your final decision, come up with names that you like equally strongly or that just might work. Then gradually weed out the extra options until only one name remains.
The name of any project, be it a computer manufacturing company, Symphony Orchestra or musical ensemble, must meet a number of requirements. First, it should be short and consist of one to three words for ease of announcing yourself on stage or for everyday use. At the same time, it must be comprehensive and reflect the goals and worldview of the entire group. When naming a dance group, it is important to consider a number of other factors.
Instructions
Decide on the direction you are performing. Select three to five main words that characterize its entire direction. In addition to, in fact, the direction of the dances, these can be other details: to certain cinema and philosophy, religion, place or event. You can also use a general hobby, for example, sports, reenactment fights or something else.
Under each category, write down several words-terms that characterize the behavior of each member of the group and the entire group as a whole. At this stage, do not limit yourself, write down everything you remember. Let this be a kind of brainstorming. You can choose independently or together with all participants.
Among the list, cross out one by one all the words that do not suit you and do not correspond to the general mood of the group. It’s better to cut off words into several “”: first in half, then in quarters, and then one at a time. Listen to the opinions of the participants who choose the name with you. Don't insist on an option that most people don't like.
From the whole variety, leave from one to three words. Make a phrase out of them in accordance with the logic of the language, but leave some paradox or element of humor. Use words that are easy to pronounce. Fans will remember these phrases more easily.
For any object, phenomenon and process, the phrase “Meet by clothes” is applicable. Of course, the most important thing is the content, but it is the form that determines how others will be disposed to perceive this content, with what feeling they will prepare to become acquainted with it. Therefore, if you want the public to initially show interest in the performance of your show ballet, you should think about a suitable name.
Instructions
Avoid complex and difficult to reproduce verbal structures. They attract attention, but... This good way interest, but it only works if you don’t plan to continue speaking. Otherwise, it will be difficult for you to earn recognition, and every time people hear the name of your show, they will be more likely to perceive you as new group, never before appearing before their eyes.
Do not use allegories with existing names of groups, even if they have already achieved fame and recognition. Independence is perceived with great respect and understanding by the audience, while trying to distinguish yourself with a familiar-sounding name on a subconscious level is repulsive and causes contempt, causing doubts about your competence.
Reflect the most essential features of your show ballet when choosing a name. Which ones do you prefer to perform? Fast and sharp? Then it is better to find a name consisting of short words, with a predominance of sharp and fast sounds. If you rather give credit to slow rhythms, then the name should not contain a large number of hard consonants and abrupt syllables. Think about a name that would consist of one or two relatively long and smooth, soft-sounding words.
Try to come up with a Russian-language version of the name that, if necessary, can be easily translated into any foreign language. You should not resort to vocabulary games if you plan to achieve success not only in your own country, but also abroad, otherwise it will be difficult for you to explain to people of other cultures what you mean.
The opening of a dance school is the most affordable way start your own business with minimal start-up capital. The profitability of a school or studio (on average in our country) is 40% at the beginning and more than 50% after a year of operation. The initial investment is approximately $500, excluding the purchase of your own premises.
A dance school as a business pays off within one and a half to two years. Before opening, it is important to collect information about competitors, popular dance styles, and the “density” of studios in the city districts. It is recommended that you draw up a business plan and, of course, collect a complete package of all necessary documents.
How to open a dance school: documentation
So, in order to become the owner of a dance studio, we will need to draw up a training program, overcome all authorities, and recruit interested students. But first you need to prepare the appropriate documentation:
- documents on renting or purchasing premises;
- permission from regulatory authorities;
- checking account;
- documents from the tax office.
Deciding on the format and direction
In order to open a dance school, you don’t need to be a dancer: it’s important to find the right one economic approach to solving the problem. First you need to decide what direction the studio will follow. “Exclusive” schools are gaining popularity, where they teach only one type: salsa or go-go, Arabic or Japanese dances, erotic or folk. In such institutions, the price of one lesson ranges from 300-600 rubles. You can recruit fewer students (and therefore fewer teachers).
Classical dance lessons cost half as much, so the entrepreneur should take care of the maximum occupancy of the establishment. An exclusive school with its narrow but more affluent segment will require more prepared premises, equipment of the appropriate level, and a stable teaching staff with high qualifications and wide recognition.
In addition, the owner will have to carry out constant open events: representatives of the business class (even the business elite) prefer to attend exclusive schools, and these are people who need fame. You can open a dance school of the usual type in an inexpensive room adapted for such classes, and at first make do with a simple tape recorder.
Choosing a room
Exclusive schools are aimed at regular clients for whom dancing is one of the components of their image and lifestyle. The audience for such students should be selected very carefully. The most suitable option would be a spacious room in a fitness club or business center, which already has excellent wooden floors, powerful ventilation, large mirrors, and comfortable changing rooms. It would be even better if the building was built and designed specifically for dance classes, but not all aspiring entrepreneurs can immediately afford such costs.
The exclusive school is attended by active people for whom comfort and prestige are the most important components of life. A simpler room will suit those children or adults who learned about the school from an advertisement and came to classes by chance, so to speak, for reconnaissance. But in both cases, classes or halls in which dance is taught must comply with all sanitary standards and requirements.
Premises requirements
The studio must have the following premises:
- dance floor - about 80 m;
- locker room and shower - 15 m each;
- hall and lounge - 20 m each.
Starting a business in the city center is expensive and not always profitable: in such places there are usually many similar establishments. If you try and find premises in a residential area, you can avoid competition and expand the circle of students by:
- housewives who are not averse to learning oriental dance techniques;
- older people, among whom are hobbies classical dances becomes more and more fashionable;
- teenagers who want to learn club dancing.
If the purpose of the school is to educate children, you should think about a room where parents will wait for little dancers. It can install vending machines with hot coffee, drinks, and light snacks in vacuum packages. Yes, this is another expense item, but the profit will be considerable. Especially when you consider that most children come to classes immediately after school, without having time to have lunch.
Equipment
Regardless of the dance direction, the studio needs musical equipment. It must create a “living” musical picture, but at the same time take up minimal space. Beginning businessmen can purchase a small mixing console or computer, two subwoofers, and several satellites. Sound equipment should be installed where it will not disturb the dancers.
Before opening a dance school, you need to think about lighting. It should not blind the eyes, but twilight will not contribute to creating a comfortable environment.
If the halls are intended to be used not only for classes, but also for holding demonstrations or other events, the sets of light/sound equipment must be different. You will need to correctly distribute the sound throughout the hall and stage, think about proper lighting, etc. Usually for concert halls purchase ready-made sets of equipment in specialized stores.
Additionally, when learning go-go, ballet moves, or sports dancing you will need machines and poles.
Recruitment
How to open a dance school? How to make it successful? Of course, choose the “right” coaches and teachers. Stable staff is the key to success. It is no secret that many people prefer to choose a teacher rather than a school premises. A dance teacher, naturally, must be a professional.
Dancing is popular among people of all ages, genders and nationalities. After all, they make it possible to maintain oneself in excellent physical fitness, improve flexibility, relax, lift your mood and more. Those who have moved from amateurs to professionals or want to become professionals create dance classes.
Brainstorm
Most of the already formed teams, sometimes training together for quite a long period, are faced with the problem of what name to come up with for the dance group. It would seem, what could be simpler? But in practice everything is more complicated. Let's figure out how to get out of this quite predicament. After all, be that as it may, each of them requires it - the name of the dance group.
First of all, the name needs to be invented not by one person, not even by the leader, but by involving the entire dance group in this venture. In other words, have a real brainstorming session. Write down and think about every idea that will be proposed during it. And even if at first it seems that they do not make sense, it later turns out that it was this idea that helped decide what to name the dance group. Therefore, it is worth writing down all the ideas that arose during the discussion.
The main thing to keep in mind is the fact that the name of the dance group should reflect its essence, style, mood, energy, personality, even age category. That is, the name of the group should reflect the very essence of the dance group. So it's careless to make a decision this issue cannot be treated. After all, as they say, whatever you name the ship, that’s how it will sail.
Basic rules for naming a dance group
Of course, naming a dance group is a purely creative process, but even this requires adherence to certain rules. These little tricks will allow you to create exactly the option that will be able to reflect the essence of the dance group:
- When choosing a name, take into account the genre style of the group, for example, ensemble modern dance- this is one style. Accordingly, the name should suit this genre. Hip-hop dance groups should have a completely different name to suit this style.
- Also consider the age category, because the name for children's group requires more simple words and their combinations, more understandable and easy to remember, especially by its participants.
- The name should be euphonious, easy to pronounce, no need to use tricky words, even if you really like how interesting they sound. Avoid long words too.
- Start from nationality dance that the group practices.
- If you decide to come up with a name for a dance group that consists of several words, be sure to make sure that they fit well together and form a single whole. But don’t get carried away by the length of the name, otherwise it will be difficult to remember.
- You should not choose names for your group that will overlap with existing ones, no matter how much you like them. The whole point is that, one way or another, people, having heard it, will draw analogies. And sometimes, without meaning to, they will compare your team with those who already have a similar name. And no one guarantees that this comparison will be in your favor.
- Use words that are familiar and understandable to you, for example, some elements of dance, style, costume, country of origin of the dance style, and so on.
- Remember that the name is the first impression of the team. That is, the viewer, without even seeing the performance, after the announcement of the group of dancers, having heard its name, already draws a certain image for himself, and he has a certain impression in advance.
- Don’t forget also about humor, because it often saves the most hopeless situation, including finding a name for a dance group. Of course, there is no need to step over the line; it is worth remembering moral standards. And a name with humor is not suitable for every team.
- When looking for a name for a children's dance group, avoid difficult words and phrases, choose those that dance class participants can easily pronounce on their own and understand their essence.
Dance eras
An excellent solution for naming a dance group would be the time period. Especially if the dances are themed. Or the direction of dance, some of its basics, movements were invented in those days. For example, a group that practices ancient dances may be called “Baroque” or “Renaissance.” But be careful, a children's dance group does not go well with complex and tricky names. By the way, you can cut off some syllables from the names of eras, resulting in new words that will become sonorous name dance group.
For groups ballroom dance The names “Belle Epoque” and “Medival” may be suitable. Based on the name historical era or a temporary fragment, do not forget about the stylistic orientation of the team. After all, for example, for a group engaged in Latin American dances, the name "Decadence" is unlikely to be appropriate. But you shouldn’t be too zealous in historically linking the name of the group.
Dance group style
The genre direction of the dance group is another clue in the difficult task of choosing a name for it. For example, if you are engaged, it’s worth somehow incorporating this into the name of the group. The same applies to ballrooms: more sophisticated, slightly elevated, graceful names are suitable here. For a hip-hop dance group and other modern dances, there is room to expand. By the way, if your repertoire contains some frequently performed numbers or a calling card dance, then you can use their name as the name of the group. Choose unusual names that have special meaning for your group and that can present you in the right key. Subsequently, the viewer will associate both the dance itself, regardless of its performer, and the word itself with your group.
Name and locality
It would be very interesting and original to use the names of rivers, lakes, mountains and other geographical objects as the name of a dance group. You can even call the group something architectural monuments, famous tourist spots. For example, the group "Versailles" or " Foggy Albion", or "Pyramid of Cheops". Or "Volga Patterns" - the name speaks both of the area and hints at the style, reflects it, that is, it immediately becomes clear that the dance group is engaged in a folk movement.
Elements of dance
A good idea for a team name can also be the names of some dance steps or elements, movements that are specific to your stylistic direction. As a rule, they are euphonious, bright, and, after hearing them, you can immediately guess what genre the group performs in.
The name of the style itself can also serve as the name of the team. But keep in mind that in this case it is easy to end up with the same name as other groups, because this technique used by many. After all, it is quite simple.
Euphony
Don’t forget that the name should be easy to pronounce, pleasant to the ear, and not jarring. Of course, some rely on originality and the fact that a harsh word will make a person remember the name faster. But, as practice shows, it is easier for people to remember what they liked. Try inserting the chosen name of the group into different phrases and sentences, inflecting it. Then you can understand how good it sounds.
Ease of perception
The age category of the groups is different, and even more so the audience. Therefore, the name must be selected taking into account that it is easily understandable both to young fans and to the parents and grandparents of the team members. Therefore, it is still worth avoiding ultra-modern expressions, the only exception being groups that choose the latest trends in dance. Many call dance groups in foreign words. This is a good move, but make sure that the chosen word is easy to pronounce even for those who do not know foreign languages.
Of course, coming up with a name for a dance group is a troublesome task, but it’s worth it. After all, by choosing the right name for the group, you will thereby create a best experience and the necessary reputation.
Question: What is the difference between a dance studio and a dance school?
Answer:
This question arises quite often, because on the Internet, the search query “dancing” brings up many links to different kinds dance educational institutions. Among them: dancing school, dance studio, dance center, dance arts laboratory. Let's try to understand this diversity.
For those who prefer to study dancing at home, there is no need to understand the differences between a dance school and a dance studio - they just need to find video dance lessons on the Internet, which have a number of advantages: they can be watched at any time convenient for you and, if desired, repeated as many times as you need to remember the educational material well.
For those who want to learn dancing “live”, the traditional option is suitable – attending dance lessons with a teacher. And here it is necessary to understand the differences between the currently available different forms organization of dance educational institutions.
Currently (especially in Moscow) dances are represented quite widely. To begin with, let's say that one of the reasons for this is the huge selection of dance styles that are now developing in our country, and in the world as a whole. The second reason is the wide choice of species training sessions: individual sessions, group classes, vip groups, master classes, open lessons etc.
Such an impressive range of styles and forms of organizing classes has led to the fact that now you can practice dancing in almost any area, at any time convenient for you, in any direction and in any volume you wish.
So, let's try to understand the names:
Dancing school- as a rule, this is educational institution, which teaches according to a program that provides for a step-by-step, gradually more complex study of one or more dance styles.
Dance studio
- this is usually a group of dancers developing one or more dance styles, the main goal of which is to create dance compositions and performances. Despite the fact that the main task is to create dance numbers, dance studios also teach dance and the best students from study groups subsequently move on to the studio.
Dance center– unites teachers-choreographers various styles dancing. The advantage of dance centers is the opportunity to study not one, but several directions at the same time in one place.
Dance Arts Laboratory- this is, as a rule, a team of innovative choreographers who experiment in the field of dance, developing existing styles and creating new directions (often due to the use of elements of another style in one dance style).
Understanding these differences, you will find the correct answer to the question: “What should I choose: a dance studio or a dance school?”
Dear friends!
It's about to happen in my life happy event- my dream of a job that will bring joy to me and, I believe, joy and benefit to those with whom I am going to work: mothers and babies must come true.
For many years I studied movement and dance (not classical choreography, A modern trends movement-dance-theater), and all this time I was sad that this remained just a hobby. Gradually, the understanding came that I had no desire for the stage, but I would like to work with children and share with them what I have learned, communicate with them in a language that is close and understandable not only to me, but to every person, although sometimes a little forgotten.
Now I am almost 2 years old - a happy, although not very successful (yet) mother. And a new feeling appeared - classes should be for mothers and babies. I dream of creating a creative space in which mother and baby would learn to communicate in the language of dance, theater, movement - such games.
