Annotation

Rhythmic gymnastics and dance, as specific forms of music-movement education, are focused on the cultivation of movement expression and the acquisition of aesthetic-coordination skills in a close connection between movement and music. The content of the course is the theoretical basis of the fields of Gymnastics and Dance and practical training of optimally rhythmic music and movement activities, the acquisition of selected movement skills of the motor base of exercises without equipment, mastering the basic technique of exercising with equipment, knowledge and performance of selected dance techniques and dances.

The graduate of the course is able to create and implement gymnastic and dance programs of exercises with music.
