Abstract

Plesači baleta su podvrgnuti nezamislivim fizičkim naporima dok simultano odišu izuzetnom
elegancijom. Takav nivo atleticizma ima mnogo rizika. Opterećenje na zglobove tijela je samo
po sebi već dovoljno opasno kod pokreta u baletu, no ti pokreti moraju biti izvedeni sa
značajnom brzinom i agilnošću. Iz tih razloga su jako česte ozljede donjih ekstremiteta kod
spomenute vrste plesa. Postoje mnoga istraživanja koja su se bavila ozljedama koljena i kukova
plesača, no nema ih toliko na temu opterećenja njihovih gležnjeva. Ovaj završni rad koristi
podatke izmjerene platformom Tekscan za analizu utjecaja opterećenja koje nastaje u različitim
baletnim pozama na gležanj u stopalu plesača. Također, opisano je na koji način se kreće težište
tijela dok prelaze iz pozicije u poziciju.

Abstract (english)

Ballet dancers go to unimaginable lengths of their physical ability all the while maintaining
otherworldly elegance and grace. Such athleticism has many risk factors. The load on the joints
in the body is damaging enough on its own but the dancers also have to perform such
challenging positions with great speed and agility. That's why injuries of the lower extremity
of the body are very common in this dance style. There are many studies done on the hip and
knee injuries of dancers but not so many on their ankles. This final paper uses the data measured
by a Tekscan platform to analyze how different ballet poses affect the ankle joint in a dancers
foot. Also how their center of gravity moves as they move through classical ballet poses.
