STRATEGI PEMBELAJARAN TARI PAGAR PENGANTIN PADA EKSTRAKURIKULER DI SMP NEGERI 02 BELITANG

ABSTRACT Traditional dance in extracurricular activities serves not only as a means of developing artistic skills but also provides opportunities for students to become acquainted with their regional cultural heritage. However, the implementation of learning strategies for specific traditional dances at the junior high school level requires further contextual investigation. This study aims to examine the learning strategies employed in teaching Pagar Pengantin Dance through extracurricular dance activities at SMP Negeri 02 Belitang, focusing on planning, implementation, evaluation, and learning challenges. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design. The informants consisted of the extracurricular dance instructor as the primary informant and participating students as supporting informants. Data were collected through moderate participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation, then examined through technique and source triangulation and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The findings indicate that planning involved scheduling practice sessions, recording attendance, organizing learning materials progressively, and preparing equipment. Learning activities included warm-ups, demonstrations, direct practice, group exercises, and corrective feedback. Evaluation was based on observations of movement accuracy, rhythm, expression, group coordination, and prop usage, without a scored assessment instrument. Limited props constituted a major obstacle during practice. This study provides an overview of traditional dance learning strategies that support dance skill development while introducing local cultural heritage in schools. ABSTRAK Tari tradisional dalam kegiatan ekstrakurikuler tidak hanya menjadi sarana pengembangan keterampilan seni, tetapi juga membuka ruang bagi siswa untuk mengenali warisan budaya daerah. Namun, penerapan strategi pembelajaran pada tari tradisional tertentu di tingkat sekolah menengah pertama masih memerlukan kajian kontekstual. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji strategi pembelajaran Tari Pagar Pengantin pada ekstrakurikuler seni tari di SMP Negeri 02 Belitang, mencakup perencanaan, pelaksanaan, evaluasi, dan kendala pembelajaran. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan desain studi kasus. Informan meliputi pembina ekstrakurikuler sebagai informan utama dan siswa sebagai informan pendukung. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi partisipatif moderat, wawancara semi-terstruktur, dan dokumentasi, kemudian diperiksa melalui triangulasi teknik dan sumber serta dianalisis menggunakan model Miles dan Huberman. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa perencanaan meliputi penjadwalan latihan, pencatatan kehadiran, penyusunan materi bertahap, dan penyiapan perlengkapan. Pelaksanaan pembelajaran dilakukan melalui pemanasan, demonstrasi, praktik, latihan kelompok, serta pemberian koreksi. Evaluasi didasarkan pada pengamatan ketepatan gerak, irama, penghayatan, kekompakan, dan penggunaan properti, tanpa instrumen penilaian berskor. Keterbatasan properti menjadi kendala latihan. Penelitian ini memberikan gambaran strategi pembelajaran tari tradisional yang mendukung penguasaan keterampilan tari sekaligus pengenalan budaya lokal di sekolah.
