  • Abstract
    The aim of this study is to use motion analysis as a tool for classifying styles, schools of Nihon Buyo (traditional Japanese dance) and differences in proficiency. We report on a basic study of motion analysis in which we calculated the center of gravity and rotation angles of dancers of different age from the same school to further our aim of using motion capture to analyze the flow of actions in dance routines in order to subject Nihon Buyo to motion analysis.
