Frame Matching is a codified theory of partner-dance connection. It is the act of creating, maintaining, or changing tension between dance partners with posture and tone, in order to lead and follow energy and direction. Frame Matching is explained in terms of pTed, which stands for changes in posture, tone, tension, energy, and the direction of energy. Changes in tension are made to create rhythmic variations in moves and movements, and are communicated through points of contact. This communication is what dancers commonly call partner connection.
