The aim of the present research is to prepare a specialized program for improving the coordination abilities and spatial orientation in children of primary school age through the means of aerobic gymnastics. The methods: theoretical analysis of literature sources; internet analysis; sports-pedagogical testing and variation analysis. We studied two groups (A and B) of 21 students aged 9-10 years. To check the level of development of the studied qualities we have used three author's tests. The test results show that in the first test (T1) to check the spatial orientation, both groups show extremely poor results with strong heterogeneity. In test №2 "Laugh clown" the students from group B show slightly better results in their level of development of coordination abilities than those in group A, as far as in the test "Scissors" (T3) the advantage is for the students from group A. In general, the level of development of the spatial orientation and coordination of the students studied by us is unsatisfactory. The prepared sample methodology contains 36 training sessions in which the various means of aerobic gymnastics are used - dance basic steps, their variations and games with a competitive and fun nature.
