Abstract
The article raises questions about how changes in sacred dogmatics affect the development of dance culture. In contrast, is it possible for dance to influence religious ideology? Why for some confessions dance is an inte-gral part, and for others – a sinful act? Consideration of the attitude of religious consciousness to dance in the historical aspect determines the relevance of the topic. The paper attempts to go beyond the understanding of dance as a bodily-physical phenomenon and determine its metaphysical foundations, from the position of which it is possible to talk about the relationship between dance and religion and proto-religion. The author shows not only the historical and cultural points of intersection of dance and religion, but also reveals the onto-logical features of their relationship on the basis of M. Eliade’s method of the history of religions.
