You have used a scatter brush to stroke your curve. There's bearing scattering ON like this:
Double click the brush icon in the Brushes panel and remove the scattering or drag a new dot to the brushes collection and define it to be a pattern brush. One dot is enough, set the needed spacing in the brush defining dialog which pops up when you drag a dot to the brushes panel.

You may be 100% correct. But why use a brush at all? You can do this with simple dashed strokes.

True, but the dot can be a dummy piece, used in the question because the questioner is not going to reveal his real pieces of art, which can be complex to be inserted to available dash patterns.
