Abstract :
The purpose of the present study was to find the effect of aerobic dance and classical dance on Physiological variables of School girls. Sixty female students from Sarah Tucker Girls Hr. Sec. School Palayamkottai, Tamilnadu, India were selected as subjects. The selected subjects were divided in to three groups and group I was given regular training on aerobic dance and group II was given regular training on classical dance and group III acted as control group. The subject’s age ranged from 16 to 18 years. Anaerobic Power, Aerobic Power and Resting Heart Rate were selected as physiological variables for this study. The collected data were analyzed statistically by using dependent‘t’ test to determine the improvement, if any among the groups prior to and immediately after the training period on selected physical fitness variables separately. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to determine the differences, if any among the adjusted Post test means on selected dependent variables separately. The level of significance was fixed at.05 level of confidence, which was considered as appropriate. The results of the study revealed that aerobic dance is better than classical dance in improving selected physical fitness variables.
