Abstract: The ability to combine and associate movements differently, a component of the special coordination capacity, is an important factor in achieving the motor behavior specific to aerobic dance, directly conditioning both the technical and artistic performance. The purpose of the research is to optimize the training of the female students in the UPB's aerobic dance team, by developing and implementing a training program containing operational structures focused on improving the segmental and plurisegmental motor coordination, taking into account the requirements of this category of age. The research was carried out between 17.10.2016 – 31.03.2017 in the UPB aerobic gym on a sample of 28 subjects (girls) aged 18 to 20, divided into two equal groups: the experimental and control group. The comparative analysis of the final results for the two groups, in the assessment of the motor segmental and plurisegmental coordination, reveals statistically significant differences, thus confirming the research hypotheses. These differences can be explained by the different effects of the training program for the two groups (the experimental and control group).
