Abstract

Condition is a prerequisite for learning, stability and realization of dance sports movements at all levels of age and abilities of the DanceSport Couples (DSC). In terms of the Latin name “Conditio” (ability to do something), condition is seen not only as a collective term for all physical, but also psychological, technical-tactical, cognitive, and social bases of performance. These different bases clearly define the performance in DanceSport. Various training methods are used in DanceSport to train the conditions skills. In this context, it must be pointed out that the conditional level of performance of DSC is developed individually. Therefore, the initial guidelines are treated as general and do not serve as “training recipes”, but can be used as starting points for the training process. Having in mind the results of the DanceSport Competitions (DSCn) in the discipline of Latin American Sport Dances (LASD), obtained as numerical values of the four main criteria (Technical Qualities, Movement to Music, Partnering Skills, and Choreography and Presentation) together with all sub-criteria and indicative qualities, training processes and methods for individual training periods can be expanded and modified at any time, in order to improve the condition skills of the DSCs to obtain higher sports results and places at the upcoming DSCn.

Key words: DanceSport, DanceSport Condition, Absolute Judging System, Judging Criteria, DanceSport Training Process.
