| Research Abstract |
The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanics of pirouette in classic ballet on generating the angular momentum around the vertical axis of the whole body. Five Russian male and ten Japanese female dancers performed pirouette. Motion capture system and force platforms recorded them to analyze by an inverse dynamic method. The male dancers performed four turns and the female dancers performed two turns in one pirouette on average. The angular momentum for all the turns was generated at the beginning of the pirouette by a twisting torque from the floor during the arm rotation in the horizontal plane. Then the female dancers also rotate their upper trunk. To correct this trunk distortion, the hip joint torque of the support leg pulled back the pelvis to the front. Thus the twisting torque has to be exerted only by the arm rotation.To perform many turns by one kick in a pirouette, the dancer adducted both upper arms in the horizontal plane and the pull down the gesture leg.
