The article presents the results of the use of sports dance classes in children's fitness training programs. The objective of the study was to test the effectiveness of the fitness training program for preschool-age children with elements of sports dance, aimed at improving their physical condition parameters. To address this objective the following research methods were used: the search for and analysis of special literature, visual analysis of the state of the biogeometric profile of posture; pedagogical methods; stabilography; and methods of mathematical statistics. The study involved 24 girls and 24 boys aged six years, whose physical development and functional status corresponded to the norms described in the literature and had no statistically significant gender differences (p>0.05) in the studied parameters. The effectiveness of the program was evaluated in a pedagogical experiment that lasted 9 months. Positive changes and statistically significant (p <0.05) improvement were observed in the following parameters of the biogeometric profile of posture: the head angle improved by 35.3%, the knee angle improved by 31.3%, the waist triangles improved by 17.9%, and the feet position changed positively by 58.3%. After participation in sports dance classes, significant improvement in muscle strength was observed in children (p<0.05). In particular, after the pedagogical experiment, the results of the back muscles strength test increased by 41.9% and the strength of the abdominal muscles increased by 57.1%. No significant changes (p> 0.05) were found in the grip strength, although at the end of the pedagogical experiment this parameter increased by 8.8%-9.1% that to a greater extent reflects the natural processes of biological development. After children's participation in the fitness training program with elements of sports dance, the children's spinal flexibility and balance improved. Asymmetry in balance control was corrected and children were able to maintain balance in single leg stance for almost the same length of time for different legs. After 9 months of participation in sports dance classes, the range and frequency of postural sway decreased significantly by 38.6% and 31.1% in the medial/lateral direction (y) and by 43.6% and 37.0% in the anterior/posterior direction (x), respectively. These data indicate improvements in static and dynamic balance control. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
