Abstract The article examines the influence of traditional Kazakh dances and rituals on the development of modern choreographic techniques. The author analyzed the historical and cultural prerequisites for the formation of national plasticity and identified key elements of ethnoplasticity, i.e. the symbolism of movements, the plasticity of hands, circular compositions and everyday gestures that remain relevant in the 21st century and acquire a new stage sound. Particular attention is paid to the relationship between ritual and ceremonial traditions and modern staging solutions. The author notes that the integration of traditional forms is carried out through three directions: stage adaptation of folklore, synthesis with the classical ballet school and the use of ethnic elements in experimental forms of contemporary dance. The author emphasized that an important task is not only the preservation of heritage, but also its understanding in the context of globalization. Traditional Kazakh dances and rituals serve as a source of inspiration, a means of cultural diplomacy and ensure the continuity of generations, representing Kazakhstan in the world cultural space.
