ABSTRACT
The Dutch East Indies became the initial place for the development of ballet in the Indies. The arrival of a Russian ballerina named Anna Pavlova in 1929 succeeded in popularizing ballet among the people of the Indies. This group of ballet dancers toured major cities in the Indies to provide relaxing entertainment. Batavia (becoming Jakarta) then became a city that was crazy about ballet dance, spreading to other big cities in Indonesia. However, due to a lack of education and information, many ballet dancers do not realize that they are experiencing GJH.
This research aims to determine the relationship between training frequency and GJH in the ballet dancer population in Jakarta, especially at the Namarina Dance Academy and to provide information regarding the relationship between training frequency and GJH experienced by ballet dancers so that dancers can be more careful when carrying out their profession.
This research uses a cross-sectional design with samples taken using purposive sampling. The total sample was obtained using the Slovin formula and 83 samples were obtained. Data was collected by measuring the frequency of dancers' practice using the IPAQ-short questionnaire and GJH using the Beighton score. The results of this study showed that 4 people (4.8%) were affected by mild hypermobility, 31 people (37.3%) were affected by moderate hypermobility, and 48 people (57.8%) were affected by severe hypermobility, in other words, they were in the Generalized Joint Hypermobility (GJH) category.
The conclusion from this research is, that this research produced a significance value of 0.000 (p<0.5) and a positive correlation value of 0.439, which means there is a significant relationship between practice frequency and GJH in ballet dancers at the Namarina Dance Academy Jakarta.
