Investigation inspired by COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown period that resulted in closing schools, higher education institutions, faculties etc in no time oriented the classical teaching and instructing to distance learning (online classes and learning). The main aim of this thesis is to establish some metric characteristics (such as objectivity, pragmatic validity, sensitivity and homogeneity) of dancing motor skills during distance learning. The secondary aim is to establish the differences between male and female in aquiring skills in LA dances (samba, rumba, cha-cha and jive), using the method of distance learning (online classes). The sample of respondents consisted of 15 male and 24 female students in age of 21 to 24. Three judges (examiners) were assessing the performance of each dance, according to previously determined criteria of evaluating. They evaluated the performance of four Latin-american dances: samba, rumba, cha-cha and jive. Visual, audio, analitic and kinestetic methods of learning are mainly being used when it comes to aquiring dancing skills. Due to the adjustment to distance learning the kinestetic method was entirely annulled. Because of that it is difficult to provide feeback, if students make mistakes while learning. Existing kinesiological kinesimetric methodology were applied within the new circumstances of learning. In conclusion, newly constructed tests for assessing the level of dancing skills of kinesiology students in samba, rumba, cha-cha and jive, showed good metric characteristics of sensitivity, objectivity, validity and pragmatic validity. It can be expected that these kind of researches will significantly contribute to development of distance learning in kinesiology in general and even more in learning dancing structures.
