Rises and falls

Rises and falls is a category of the ballroom dance technique that refers to rises and falls of the body of a dancer achieved through actions of knees and feet (ankles).

This technique is primarily recognized in International Standard and American Smooth dance categories. Rises and falls are important in Waltz, Foxtrot, Quickstep, and Viennese Waltz. Tango is described the "level" or "flat" dance, and its basic technique specifically eliminates rises/falls in the overall motion, with the exception of certain advanced figures and styles.

The expression "rises and falls of the body" is a rather vague one, and in attempts to be more precise some texts refer to center of gravity, rather than body. This may also be misleading if taken out of context: the center of gravity may be lowered, e.g., by bends and sways. In addition, a certain amount of body rise and fall may be achieved by hip action, used in Latin dance, but absolutely proscribed in Standard and Smooth.

Rises and falls of the body is a natural phenomenon during casual walking: when feet are apart the body is closer to the ground than when the feet are together. Some dances, e.g., Charleston, exaggerate this natural "bobbing", while in many others bobbing at each step is considered to be bad style or lack of proper technique.

    "Rise & Fall" is a song by British R&B artist Craig David and the third single taken from his second studio album, Slicker Than Your Average (2002). The song, a collaboration with British musician Sting, returned David to the UK top five, peaking at number two on the UK Singles Chart. It was the biggest hit from the album.

    The song is based on a sample of the 1993 song "Shape of My Heart" from Sting's album Ten Summoner's Tales. Girl group Sugababes released their song, "Shape", which also sampled the Sting song within weeks of "Rise & Fall". The song also returned David to the top ten of the Australian Singles Chart, outpeaking both "What's Your Flava?" and "Hidden Agenda". It also marked the first DVD single release from David.

    Chart performance

    "Rise & Fall" charted at number two on the UK Singles Chart, spending ten weeks inside the UK Top 75. It also charted at number six in the ARIA Charts.

    Rise & Fall

    by: Beloved

    Our defenses open
    Our motives are shot
    This hush of the heart seems too much to keep
    It’s gathered here and wakening me
    It’s stealing with fear that’s reaching in
    And pulling out with every beat
    Resounding loud and clear, but only to me
    In this confiding pulse
    I’ll find a way to keep it all confined
    It’s reminding me and always surrounding me
    Past pictures will keep me
    From being the man I could be
    Burn out and I’ll burn now
    I’ll carry this burden of memory
    A name that lingers on a blank face
    Can never fill a heart that’s sinking fast
    And hurting to feel
    It’s falling so fast now
    To never rise again
    We all burn out
    We all rise and fall
