What is "rhythmic gymnastics"?

Rhythmic gymnastics is a sport where athletes perform choreographed routines using handheld equipment such as ribbons, hoops, balls, clubs, or ropes. The routines combine elements of dance, gymnastics, and flexibility, all set to music. Competitors are judged on their coordination, control of the equipment, artistic expression, and overall difficulty of movements. Unlike traditional gymnastics, which involves acrobatic skills on apparatuses, rhythmic gymnastics focuses on smooth, flowing movements that require strength, balance, and precise timing. It is usually performed individually or in groups, with routines designed to showcase grace, creativity, and technical skill.
