Main research areas
Sport, as an increasingly decisive element of the world economy, opens up new markets, the impact of which can be measured in GDP shows an increasingly intense growth. Sports are considered one of the largest industries worldwide, contributing to employment and generating increasing income. Sports tourism has become a fashionable topic in recent decades, both from a research point of view and from a practical point of view. As the scientific research of sport tourism has developed, sport has received more and more targeted attention, as reflected in the many sport tourism typologies that have emerged recently. Despite the growing emphasis on the fundamental nature of sport within the tourism system, there has been very little discussion of how sport fits into current theories of tourism attractions.
Nowadays, the question of who can compete as a woman or as a man in the various sports comes to the fore more and more often. Does biological sex determine the right to exist for the majors, or gender identity. Furthermore, the topic may arise as to what motivates athletes to participate in the competition of the other gender. There are sports where it is worthwhile to compete as a man in the women's competition, and as a woman among the men. In my presentation, we examine sports through a lens that sheds light on the cause-and-effect relationships inherent in the background. In many cases, the contrast between gender identity, biological sex and lived self-image really means the fulfillment of the individual from within, while in other cases the laws allow the athlete to change gender and thus compete in the category of the other gender. As an opening question, we would like to raise what is possible and what is not in the sense of fair play, as well as how the future of sports will develop.
To demonstrate, based on previous research and through an extreme snow sport, what factors make a movement healthy, how it is worth building an educational theme, and what must be sacrificed in order to be able to continue lifelong sports activities in the name of health better and in a shorter time. How can we build on previous movements when teaching a new form of movement, and examining the possibility of incorporating natural movements into snow sports. The main purpose of the analysis is to explore the following topics and aspects:
The formation and creation of combat sports originates from the natural psychological characteristics of humans, since the fight against each other appeared from the beginning as a foundation in connection with the protection of property. Already in the Neolithic age, clay figures depicting movements characteristic of combat sports were found, and 4,500-year-old Egyptian papyrus scrolls recording wrestling movements are also known as outstanding finds, while the victories achieved during the ancient Greek Olympics gave the champions an outstanding status. In the Middle Ages, the participants could develop and compare their skills during countless knightly tournaments and combat exercises. As a result of the development of societies and the socialization processes, actions that were previously fought for survival have turned into competition and struggle within regulated frameworks. These changes and their methodological questions are worth researching.
