The influence of ballroom dance on the development of aesthetic perception in students

the article examines the aesthetic component of ballroom dancing as a special choreographic direction that plays an important role in the formation of artistic and aesthetic perception of students. The study is based on an interdisciplinary methodological approach, including the analysis of philosophical, pedagogical and socio-cultural aspects of ballroom dancing. Particular attention is paid to the concepts of aesthetic perception proposed by Arnold Berleand, Jean-Luc Nancy and Umberto Eco, as well as their application in the study of the expressive properties of choreography. The advantages of teaching ballroom dancing in educational institutions are discussed. Despite changes in fashion, ballroom dancing continues to be a significant element of culture, contributing to the development of aesthetic perception in both professional performers and students just beginning their acquaintance with the art of dance. During classes, students learn to work in pairs, develop coordination of their movements and the ability to adapt to the rhythm of their partner. Ballroom dancing classes develop a responsible attitude towards learning, and the experience of performing allows participants to become more confident on stage and reveal their creative abilities. Moreover, regular practices give students the opportunity to deepen their knowledge and expand their aesthetic preferences.
