AB - This study developed and applied (implemented) a Number-Based Rhythm (N.B.R) program to explore the use of numerical systems as a creative and structural tool in dance composition. The N.B.R program employs the inherent logic and structure of numbers to guide movement generation, rhythmic design, spatial arrangement, and emotional expression. The program was implemented (applied) with six choreographers, each with over five years of experience, along with two expert advisors. Over six sessions, participants engaged in a structured creative process that used using numeric principles to support improvisation and enhance compositional clarity. The results demonstrated that the integrationing of numbers into the choreographic process enhanced logical structuring, improved communication between choreographer and dancer, and fostered a balance between spontaneity and systematization. This research suggests that the potential og numerical principles serve as an innovative methodology for dance creation, with applications in both artistic practice and dance education.
