摘要：The aim of this research was to study the effects of a modern dance program on the changes in strength, speed and coordination. The sample of subjects consisted of 60 female subjects aged 13 and 14, who were divided into two sub-samples. The first one consisted of 30 female subjects who made up the experimental group, all of whom were members of the "La Luna" dance clubs in the towns of Vranje and Niš, while the other 30 female subjects, students of the "Ratko Vukićević" elementary school in Niš, made up the control group.
The experimental program lasted for 18 weeks, and included two weekly training sessions, each lasting for a period of 60 minutes. The subjects trained using the "Disco-dance" technique which included simple and complex elements of technique, jumps and turns. The choreography of the "Disco-dance" included basic technical, elementary and complex combinations – multiplications. In addition, the subjects trained using elements of folk, sport, art, jazz and hip-hop dancing. The subjects in the control group regularly took part in their physical education classes.
Both groups were tested prior to and following the experimental program. The results were processed using an analysis of covariance, the MANCOVA and ANCOVA. The results showed that both groups had made improvements in the studied abilities, but that the changes among the members of the experimental group were more pronounced. The hierarchically highest changes that the program led to had to do with the motor skill of coordination, followed by speed and finally strength. The starting hypothesis of this research was confirmed, meaning that an experimental program of modern sport dancing has a significant effect on the changes in motor coordination, strength and speed
