Abstract

In the literature of dance and dance pedagogy a main emphasis is on such im-portant components of dance composition as: time, space, graphical solution and others, but the understanding of artistically creative process, the activity of choreographer’s consciousness or even subconscious before creating a dance and in the process of creation is only mentioned briefly. The authors of this article describe the stages of artistically creative work of a dance teacher as a choreographer and the way these stages lead up to the work of art. The aim of this article is to analyse the artistically creative work of a dance teacher witch results in a work of art – a dance. The aim is carried out in the analysis of literature and on its base promoted evaluation indicators and levels of a dance teacher as a choreographer. The evaluation indicators and levels are approbated in expert interviews. The content of approbation results is an important basis for dance teacher practise by influencing and improving the integration of dance creating process in the work of a dance teacher. Often dance teacher do not realize that their professional activity is the creation of an artwork. Teachers are limited to a range of movements in some genres or the requirements of their work place, but above all dance teachers are representatives of art un they have a potential to create new, original artistic value.
