Sažetak
The aim of this research was to establish the connection between motor abilities of the students at the Faculty of Kinesiology and their success in dancing. The sample was made up of 85 Faculty of Kinesiology students who have finished the programme of the course Dance. The variables’ sample used to assess how successful the students in dancing are, have been the marks of 5 competent experts in the field of dancing, which have been given to the subjects after performing each dance (5 folk and social dances) on the basis of the video recording. When choosing the dances, plan and programme of the course Dance, structural analysis of each dance, diversity of the rhythms and pace as well as ethnochoreographic determination of the folk dances were taken into consideration. The variables’ sample used to assess motor abilities consisted of the results gained by measuring motor abilities, for which influence on dancing success had already been confirmed in previous research - coordination, rhythmic structures realization, balance, movement frequency, flexibility and explosive strength. It was established statistically relevant connection of the predictor set of students’ motor abilities and total success in dancing criterion (R=0, 67), the predictor set and success in folk dances criterion (R=0, 67) and the predictor set and success in social dances criterion (R=0, 62) (p<0, 01). The predictors with the greatest contribution to the connection of the predictor set and the total success in dancing and success in folk dances are unrhythmic drumming (Mkrbub) and side steps with a 360° turn (Kus360), used to assess motor ability to realize rhythmic structures and coordination. The connection of the predictor set and success in social dances has been mostly contributed by the rhythmic structures realization assessment test - unrhythmic drumming (Mkrbub). To conclude with, the students with the higher level of rhythmic structures and coordination will be more successful in performing dancing structures.
