Introduction: Dance sport is an emerging sport activity. The number of college students devoted to the study of dance is increasing. Basic dance sport skills are inherent to performance. Basic skills training requires dancers to have a certain degree of flexibility, endurance, speed, etc. Currently, we know that CORE strength training can improve the physical function of athletes, but studies are scarce as to its true impact on proprioceptive skills in dance sports. Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of strengthening the CORE on muscle coordination in sport dancers. This paper examines the relationship between core strength training and dance skills in athletes. Methods: Undergraduate sport dance students were randomly and voluntarily selected. These students undergo a 4-month training protocol in CORE strengthening. The effect of this experiment was evaluated with biomarker and kinetic data collected before and after the experiment. These data were worked out statistically and the results were discussed according to the literature. Results: After the CORE training protocol, the sport dance students had significant differences in physical tests(P<0.05). Conclusion: CORE training can promote physical stability, explosive power and muscle coordination in sport dancers. Level of evidence II; Training research - outcome investigation.

Purpose: to compare target, style, methodological, historical and socio-political features and determine the possibilities of mutual application of various approaches to the development of dance education in China and Ukraine. Material and methods. The review included articles on the peculiarities of historical development, methodological aspects, the dance influence on health of people of different ages and different social status. The review also included articles on the peculiarities of the social and political aspects of dance art in China and Ukraine. The analysis of literary sources was carried out by working with scientific articles that are presented in the databases "Web of Science", "Scopus", "Pub Med" and others. Results. The features of Chinese dances that can be applied in Ukraine have been identified: 1 - the practice of mass dances on the streets and squares of cities; 2 - the inner orientation of the dance art towards unity with nature, towards the self-expression of people of their feelings, emotions, experiences, towards achieving harmony through movement; 3 - increased attention to the psychological preparation of dancers; 4 - high attention of researchers to the influence of dancing on the mental and cardiological health of people of different ages; 5 - high number of articles, published in rating journals. The features of Ukrainian dances, which can be applied in China, have been determined: 1 - the development of speed-power qualities of dancers; 2 - implementation of an individual approach, which is currently beginning to develop in Ukraine. Conclusions. The combination of Ukrainian speed-power dance and Chinese inner focus on harmony of body and soul, on unity with nature will create a qualitatively new approach to the development of dance art in general and to the process of teaching dance. This study is the first from the point of view of a comparative analysis of the process of teaching dance in China and Ukraine in terms of historical, socio-political, methodological, substantive aspects, as well as the impact of dancing on the body of the practitioners.
