MINDSET MANIFESTATION PECULIARITIES IN THE REPRESENTATIVES OF DIFFERENT CHOREOGRAPHY STYLES
SUMMARY:
Dancing is one of the types of artistic and creative activities, through which the inner world of a person can be expressed. Each style of choreography requires specific skills and talent. The article is aimed at identifying the mindset of individuals engaged in choreography activities according to different styles, by means of the method “Type of thinking” by G. V. Resorcinol. The study involved 107 dancers, improvisers, educators, directors, and actors who have succeeded in their profession. The obtained results have shown that the level of subject and active thinking of dancers majoring in any choreographic style is medium. Abstract and symbolic mindset is highly developed in improvisers and is poorly developed in choreographers-directors. Verbal and logical thinking has a high level of the development in improvisers and choreographers, and the lowest – in dancers-performers. Eye -mindedness is highly developed in all dancers, which is associated with creativity, artistic mindset and imagination. The development of eye-mindedness is the most important thing in any choreography style, especially for choreographers and improvisers. Verbal and logical thinking is the most important for teachers-tutors and improvisers. Subject and active thinking should be highly developed in all dancers, regardless of their occupation. However, abstract and symbolic thinking is not important for dancers regardless of their professional area, and the subject and active one as a primary mindset for dancer-performers, on the contrary, must be highly developed. Children and adolescents who deal with or are going to deal with choreography should develop and improve their eye-mindedness, subject and active, verbal and logical thinking, creativity, imagination, physical coordination, etc.
KEYWORDS:
