Bushuev, Timofey ; Gryc, Tomáš (advisor) ; Miřátský, Petr (referee)
Title: An analysis of training load in standard and Latin American ballroom dancing in 10-15 years old children Aims: The aim of this bachelor thesis is to study the intensity of physical activity of dancers during the performance of standard and Latin American dances. The analysis of the intensity of exercise will allow a deeper understanding of the effect of these dances on the human body and provide recommendations for an effective training process for dancers. Young dancers are often unaware that dance can be classified as an anaerobic sport with physiological demands similar to traditional anaerobic sports such as sprinting, swimming and weightlifting. The aim of this study is also to uncover the problems associated with the intensity of physical activity during the training of ballroom dances and to investigate the effect of these dances on the physical preparation of dancers. The research question focuses on the intensity of the dancers' physical exertion and the factors affecting this exertion. The results of the study could assist dance physiologists, physical therapists, and pediatricians in preventing growth-related injuries in young dancers. Methods: respondents were approached through dance studios, clubs and online sources. Data collection was systematic over a two-month period....

Effects of dance sport in the musculoskeletal system of adult individuals
JANÁČKOVÁ, Iveta
Dance sport is a demanding discipline; to participate in sport dance competitions needs daily training. Injuries and misbalance appear due to a huge strain and many dancers are forced to stop their career prematurely. There is not enough literature about the negative impact of dance sport on the musculoskeletal system available, so I decided to summarize the information. Another problem is an insufficient amount of information about possible compensation and prevention for sport dancers and dance coaches. In the theoretical part of the undergraduate thesis I focused on the description of basic kinesiology and anatomy of the musculoskeletal system, the characteristics of dance sport, and mainly on summarizing the information about the influence of this sport on the musculoskeletal system. The practical part of the undergraduate thesis consists of quality research made on two dance pairs and two non-sporting pairs. I got the necessary information from all participants from kinesiology analysis. I made questionnaires to get and complete the information about the dance pairs´ training. I compared the results with the results of kinesiology analysis of non-sporting pairs and I summarized the information about changes in the musculoskeletal system of dance pairs which might be caused by dance sport. Moreover, I planned compensatory exercises for dance pairs. The results of my research prove many effects on the musculoskeletal system and frequent injuries which might be caused by dance sport. Sport dancers should know about them. The undergraduate thesis can be used especially for sport dancers to provide them information about the possible negative impact of dance sport on the musculoskeletal system. It can also be used as an inspiration for dance sport coaches to include compensatory exercises into their lessons.

Kadlec, Jan ; Zahálka, František (advisor) ; Strnad, Pavel (referee)
Title: Selected parameters of postural stability in elite sport dance group. Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate selected parameters of postural stability in elite sport dancers in Czech Republic during their preparatory period and to define the relation of postural stability to body composition, equality and ability of explosive strength production of lower limbs. Methods: The group of 10 elite sport dancers, composed of men (n=5, age=25,1±2,4 years, height=181,9±3,8 cm, weight=73,7±7,5 kg) and women (n=5, age=24±3,2 years, height=169,1±5,7 cm, weight=53,8±3,6 kg), was longitudinally observed during their preparatory period. At the beginning and on the top (national championship) postural stability, body composition and dynamic performance were evaluated. These following devices were used for testing: force plate FootScan (RScan International, Belgium), bioimpedance analyzer BIA 2000M (Datainput, Germany) and Tanita (Tanita Corporation, Japan), dynamometric force plates Kistler 8611 (Kistler, Switzerland). Results were evaluated by descriptive and inductive (paired t-test) statistics. Results: Results showed high similarity of followed selected parameters in elite sport dancers at the beginning and also at the top of preparatory period. Postural stability was slightly impaired, but...

Conflict resolution among competitive Ballroom dancers in the process of learning and the influence of personal relationships
Vanek, Marián ; Chrz, Vladimír (advisor) ; Šlédr, Jiří (referee) ; Lindová, Jitka (referee)
Basic element of competitive Dance Sport is the dance couple. For being succesful, it's needed to master the combination of specific dance skills, sport skills, stress resilience and skills connected to dance partnership, mainly communication skills and conflict resolution skills. Since the scientific research of conflict resolution among competitive couples is very scarce, aim of our explorative qualitative research is to understand how Latin Dance Sport couples experience conflicts and their subjective meaning of partnership in competitive dance. Experiences of dancers of various dance classes and their trainers were gathered using questionnaire (= 43) and half-structured interviews (= 13). Based on themati analysis, relevant themes were identified and described, and explanatory model further based on activity theory, game theory and theory of interdependence was proposed. Model suggests that contradiction of two different motives (competitive success vs. partner relationship) in the activity systems of competitive dance predisposes possible complex relationships between (implicit and/or explicit) aims of dancers, their type of partnership, possible expressed conflicts and their preferred styles of conflict resolution (based on the unique context of every dance couple). Relevant identified themes...

Title: Judging systems of competitions in dance sport from judges point of view Objectives: The main goal of the thesis is to introduce the absolute judging system used on a dances sport competitions 3.0 to a wider public, and to describe differences between absolute judging systems 2.0, 2.1 and 3.0. Next goal is to map opinions, knowledge and attitudes of the TOP judges of the CDSF towards the judging systems of the dance sport. Methods: To obtain the necessary data for the elaboration of the thesis was used a method of electronic questionnaires. For the elaboration of a theoretical part of the thesis were used primary sources, professional literature and experts' own materials. Result: The thesis maps used systems of dance sport in the Czech Republic and abroad and their main progress towards objective and measurable judging. Based on survey, the questionnaire reveals the knowledge, opinions and attitudes of the Czech TOP judges towards System 3.0. In fact, the thesis is a breakthrough, because even though the absolute judging system 3.0 is already used in practice, there is still no Czech written documentation of its work or usage. Keywords: Dance sport, Latin, Ballroom, Dance, Judges, Judging systems, Sport, The questionnaire
