| Annotation: | This article explores the perspectives of various Russian and Chinese authors on the concept of “accessible forms of classical dance” as opposed to competitive ballroom dancing. These are dances for pleasure and communication, dances that partners can do with little to no preparation after just pairing up, focusing on the process itself, nonverbal communication, and aesthetic enjoyment. This approach emphasizes the social and leisure functions of dance, making it “accessible” in the truest sense of the word, i.e., accessible to the general public. Accessible forms are viewed not as a “simplified version,” but as a specific pedagogical environment where aesthetics and psychophysics exist inextricably linked. The article explores accessible forms of classical dance, essential in the professional training of ballet teachers to achieve an emotional effect in the teaching of classical choreography, and describes the characteristics of accessible forms of classical dance for the popularization of choreography classes. A unique emotional effect of learning through accessible forms of classical dance is “muscular joy”, which arises at the intersection of fatigue and satisfaction. The importance of using accessible forms of classical dance extends far beyond simply learning movement. Dance is viewed as a powerful tool for addressing a range of social, pedagogical, and personal challenges, making high art accessible to a wider audience. Accessible forms preserve the healing potential of classical dance, making it safe and beneficial for people of all ages and levels. The author presents the results of implementing the “Healthy Ballet” program into the educational process for ballet teachers. It is designed for training non-professional ballet dancers. It can serve as an essential training aid for non-professional dancers, helping them realize their potential and achieve their best results. It also promotes the development of plastic movement and increased body awareness, improving the ability to sense one’s own body and more expressively convey emotional states through movement. | ||
