Elit Düzeyde Halk Dansları Sporcularının Vücut Postür Düzeylerinin İncelenmesi: Sayısal Değerlendirme Yöntemleriyle Kesitsel Bir Analiz

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, İstanbul ilinde profesyonel olarak en az beş yıldır halk dansları yapan 82 elit sporcunun vücut postür düzeylerini incelemektir. Sporcuların postür değerlendirmeleri “Posture Screen Mobile” uygulaması kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Analizlerde toplam yan kayma, yan eğim, omuz ve kalça hizası gibi parametreler dikkate alınmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular, halk dansçılarının postür profillerinde, özellikle omuz ve kalça hizasında simetrik bir dağılım eğilimi olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu durum, düzenli halk dansı pratiğinin postüral denge ve hizalanmaya katkı sağlayabileceğini düşündürmektedir.

Postural Profiles of Elite-Level Folk Dancers: A Cross-Sectional Analysis Using Digital Assessment Tools

Öz

The aim of this study was to examine the postural alignment of 82 elite-level folk dancers who have been professionally active in Istanbul for at least five years. Postural assessments were conducted using the “Posture Screen Mobile” application. Parameters such as total side shift, lateral tilt, shoulder alignment, and pelvic alignment were analyzed. The results indicate that folk dancers tend to exhibit symmetrical alignment, especially in the shoulder and pelvic regions. These findings suggest that regular engagement in folk dancing may positively contribute to postural balance and structural alignment.
