The artistic production entitled The Art of Burle Marx was led by Bryn Walters and his choreographic team. This artistic project was conceived to be staged in the closing ceremony of the 2016 Olympic ...Games in Rio de Janeiro (Brasil). This mass choreography makes extensive use of video mapping to enhance the choreographic sequences, as is to be found throughout both the opening and closing Ceremonies. Bryn Walters created this artistic work by reinterpreting, with 480 performers and the use of video projections, the main geometric shapes for which the Brazilian landscape architect Roberto Burle Marx is so well known. Through a careful analysis of the official video, using the Elan software, together with the consultation of ceremony programmes and interviews with the choreographers, the main moments of this mass choreography will be researched and highlighted, with the aim of tracing the recognizable characteristics of Burle Marx’s work. It is possible to conclude that the choreographer Bryn Walter has achieved a successful reconstruction and dissemination of the work of the architect Burle Marx, thanks to a complex collaboration between different professionals, which enhanced the relationship between the performers and the video projections.
Since their first appearance in Olympic ceremonies, mass choreographies have played a significant role that has grown steadily over the years in terms of variety of images and organizational ...complexity. The use of choreographic language within them evolved in line with the aesthetic and social currents manifested in the major sporting events. Therefore, growth also occurred according to an internal logic of mutual influences between choreographers specializing in this type of mass movement. Mass choreography, which requires interdisciplinary study, has not yet been analyzed from the perspective of the history of sport, let alone with regard to the interrelationship between choreographers. The starting point for focusing on the evolution of this artistic element is the analysis of two choreographies by Doug Jack from the opening ceremony of the 2006 winter Olympics in Turin. The example of Turin is considered an important element in the search for a continuity of style with the past, as well as an influence on the productions that were presented in subsequent Olympic ceremonies.

La specializzazione precoce non garantisce il successo nello sport d’élite, ma comporta numerosi rischi (Malina, 2010). Una delle strategie per contrastare questi rischi nell’allenamento giovanile è ...la proposta di un carico motorio che presenti carattere di polivalenza e multilateralità. La multilateralità nella metodologia dell’allenamento è considerata un aspetto chiave per la formazione giovanile (AA.VV., 1987; AA.VV., 1987; Sotgiu & Pellegrini, 1989; Starosta, 2006; Weinek, 2009). Proposte di lavoro multilaterale possono essere costruite ispirandosi a differenti discipline sportive che presentano similitudini quali, ad esempio, gesti ed attrezzi. Nella pratica sportiva alcuni allenatori, alla continua ricerca di idee innovative per ampliare le proprie proposte di lavoro sul campo, talvolta si ispirano ad altre discipline sportive. Ma due discipline sportive molto diverse tra loro possono realizzare proposte di lavoro traversali per una formazione multilaterale?
Objectives: L’obiettivo dello studio è formulare proposte di lavoro con la palla adatte a due discipline molto diverse, quali la Ginnastica Ritmica e la Pallacanestro che possano contribuire all’allenamento multilaterale di entrambe nella fase di formazione sportiva giovanile.

Rhythmic gymnastics is the unique female sport which includes aspects of both artistic gymnastics and dance and is characterized by the use of small apparatuses (e.g., rope, clubs, ribbon, hoop and ...ball). Many studies compared the balance ability of athletes from different sports, underlying that gymnasts tended to have the best balance ability (Hrysomallis, 2011; Bressel, Yonker, Kras & Heath, 2007). No literature analysed the influence of the competitive experience of rhytmic gymnasts on the static postural balance.
Objective: The purpose of the study is to evaluate the influence of years of competitive experience, hours of physical training and competition level on static postural balance in elite rhythmic gymnastics female athletes.
