Abstract

World Gymnaestrada is opportunity for international confrontation of various concepts of Gymnastics for all and approaches to creating music-movement compositions. Sport for All presents the group performances that affect the lifestyle of large amounts of athletes.

In our creative work, we pay attention to the theoretical aspects of the creation and effectiveness of the created physical education program. Motivation of athletes to participate in World Gymnaestrada and subjective assessment of the group performance were repeatedly collected through a questionnaire.

The physiological effect of compositions was measured by achieved value of heart rate in relation to the theoretical value. Criteria of creating performance quality were writing over the years defined analysis and observation of our and foreign performances.

The biggest motivation for gymnasts is their participation in the World event with a unique atmosphere, wishes to practice in a team and feel the performances together. The values of heart rate during the performances showed a higher level of physical fitness of gymnasts compared with the general population.

For creative work in group composition were defined principles: unity, gradation, contrast, repetition, variety and phrase. For further development and improvement of the performances we identified two basic assumptions: implementation of the principles in the creating of composition and sport concept and contents of Gymnastics for all.
