THE IMPACT OF CHOREOGRAPHIC TRAINING ON SPORTS PERFORMANCE IN RHYTHMIC GYMNASTICS

Abstract. Rhythmic gymnastics is a highly demanding Olympic sport that combines technical precision, artistic expression, flexibility, coordination, and physical fitness. Among the various components of athletes' preparation, choreographic training plays a significant role in improving both technical execution and artistic performance. Choreography not only enhances the aesthetic quality of routines but also contributes to balance, rhythm, body control, coordination, and emotional expression. This article examines the influence of choreographic training on sports performance in rhythmic gymnastics by analyzing its contribution to technical skills, physical development, artistic presentation, psychological readiness, and competitive success. The study highlights that systematic choreographic preparation is an essential element of modern rhythmic gymnastics training and significantly improves athletes' competitive performance.
