Abstract

Kreativni ples nudi velik potencijal za razvoj djece rane i predškolske dobi jer je manje usmjeren na tehničko usavršavanje pokreta, a više na kreativno i emocionalno izražavanje te istraživanje mogućnosti vlastitog tijela kroz pokret. U ovom radu razmatra se potencijal kreativnog plesa u različitim područjima razvoja poput kinestetičkih i motoričkih vještina, svijesti o vlastitom tijelu, socioemocionalnog i kognitivnog razvoja djeteta. Istražuje se što je to kreativni ples, put od svakodnevnog pokreta do plesa, primjena igre u kreativnom plesu te uloga plesnog pedagoga u praksi kreativnog plesa. Promišlja se i o transformativnom potencijalu kreativnog plesa, posebice povezano s uvidima dobivenim putem kvalitativnog istraživanja iskustva, mišljenja i stavova plesnih pedagoga koji vode različite plesne predškolske grupe u kojima se prakticira kreativni ples. Metodom polustrukturiranog intervjua konkretni primjeri iz prakse povezani su s teorijskim polazištima ovog rada te se daju daljnji prijedlozi za implementaciju kreativnog plesa na načine koji će stimulirati cjelovit razvoj djece rane i predškolske dobi. Analiza intervjua uz vlastitu refleksiju istraživačice sadrži uvide u teme kao što su povezivanje plesa s dramskom umjetnošću, pozitivni utjecaj kreativnog plesa na pažnju i emocionalnu inteligenciju djece, preispitivanje rigidnih društvenih normi, metoda improvizacije i mnoge druge kojima se otvara put daljnjim istraživanjima u ovom području.

Abstract (english)

Creative dance has great potential for the development of preschool children because its focus is less on technical training and perfecting dance moves and more on creative and emotional expression, as well as the exploration of the capabilities of one's body through movement. This paper examines the potential of creative dance in different developmental areas such as kinesthetic and motor skills, awareness of one's body and the sociological and emotional development of children. The meaning of the term creative dance is explored, as well as the path from everyday movement towards dance, the use of play in creative dance and the role of dance educators within creative dance practice. The transformative potential of creative dance is considered, especially in regard to the findings from qualitative research of the experiences, opinions and attitudes of dance educators teaching various preschool dance groups in which creative dance is practiced. Using the method of a semi-structured interview, specific examples from practice were linked to this paper's theoretical overview and further suggestions were given for the implementation of creative dance in ways that will stimulate the holistic development of preschool children. The interview analysis along with the researcher's own reflection provides insight into topics such as incorporating drama into creative dance, the positive impact creative dance has on children's attention and emotional intelligence, reevaluating rigid societal norms, the method of improvisation and many others, thus opening a path towards further research in this area of study.
