Abstract

Ovaj rad istražuje utjecaj sekundarne socijalizacije na oblikovanje identiteta plesača u hrvatskim plesnim zajednicama. Kroz fokus grupe, istraživanje je otkrilo da rekreativni i profesionalni plesači na hrvatskoj plesnoj sceni donose različita iskustva i motivacije za ples. Sudjelovanjem u plesu, plesači razvijaju emocionalnu povezanost s plesnom zajednicom, što doprinosi izgradnji njihovog identiteta. Različite plesne zajednice promoviraju različite vrijednosti i suočavaju se s različitim izazovima. Plesači također obavljaju različite uloge unutar zajednica, uključujući trenere, organizatore, opskrbljivače i zabavljače. Postoje razlike između profesionalnih i rekreativnih plesača u percepciji važnosti plesa u njihovim identitetima, razini fizičke spremnosti i upotrebi društvenih medija u promociji vlastitog rada. Unatoč mnogim pozitivnim aspektima plesne socijalizacije, istraživanje je identificiralo i negativne aspekte, poput izazova vezanih uz samoprihvaćanje. Društvene mreže igraju ključnu ulogu u promociji rada plesača, ali stvaraju i pritisak za kontinuiranim stvaranjem online sadržaja. Rad zaključuje da je plesna socijalizacija ključna za formiranje identiteta plesača i njihov razvoj te da je potrebno daljnje istraživanje kako bi se podržali plesači u njihovom profesionalnom putovanju.

Abstract (english)

This paper explores the influence of secondary socialization on shaping the identities of dancers in Croatian dance communities. Through focus groups, the research has revealed that recreational and professional dancers in the Croatian dance scene bring different experiences and motivations to dance. By participating in dance, dancers develop emotional connections with the dance community, contributing to the construction of their identity. Different dance communities promote different values and face various challenges. Dancers also perform
different roles within the communities, including coaches, organizers, suppliers, and entertainers. There are differences between professional and recreational dancers in the perception of the importance of dance in their identities, levels of physical fitness, and the use of social media in promoting their work. Despite many positive aspects of dance socialization, the research has identified negative aspects, such as challenges related to self-acceptance. Social media plays a crucial role in promoting dancers' work but also creates pressure for continuous creation of online content. The paper concludes that dance socialization is crucial for shaping dancers' identities and their development, and further research is needed to support dancers in their professional journey.
