Material and Methods: In the 2013-2014 academic year Cukurova University State Conservatory Ballet Main Art Branch recieved 8-11-year-old students admitted to study ballet training, compared to students who were not accepted by the accepted students. Convenient and inconvenient students for ballet education were identified as two study groups. While conevient experimental group, inconvenient students were evaluated as control group. This study ballet students determine their body type and includes anthropometric measurements to evaluate objectively the criteria for ballet training. In determining the Heath-Carter body type classification is used.
Results: In our study, Cukurova University State Conservatory accepted applicants for training in ballet, for 51 female students were enrolled. As 31 girls were convenient for ballet education, 20 girls were not. While the average of age, height and weight measurements of convenient students were 9.51+/-0.67, 1.38+/-0.07 m and 30.03+/-4.85kg respectively, the same dimensions in inconvenient students, 10.20+/-0.89, 1.43+/-0.10 m and 39.06+/-6.94 kg respectively. Measurements of diameter, circumference and subcutaneous fat thickness were found less for convenient students. Major body type of convenient students was identified as mesomorph, whereas major body type of inconvenient students was identified as endomorphy.
Conclusion: These parameters used in convenience for classical ballet education were evaluated objectively. The observations presented in this study have defined physical features and need to be taken into consideration for evaluate and guidelines for determine the deficiency in literature.
