Efficacy of Unsupervised YouTube Dance Exercise for Patients With Hypertension: Randomized Controlled Trial

Efficacy of Unsupervised YouTube Dance Exercise for Patients With Hypertension: Randomized Controlled Trial

Therefore, dance has become an accessible sport, and compared to other activities such as marathon running or swimming, is easier for patients to perform in terms of space and time. A meta-analysis comparing dance to other exercises found that adherence and dropout rates for dance were better than those for other forms of exercise [21]. Previous studies have shown that regular dance therapy can benefit hypertension management in patients [22-30].

Efficacy of Digital Dance on Brain Imagery, Cognition, and Health: Randomized Controlled Trial

The intervention group played a digital somatosensory dance game (DANZ BASE; International Games System Company) at a community health center; these sessions, each lasting ≥30 minutes (including a 5-7–minute warm-up and cooldown), took place twice weekly for 6 months. In each digital somatosensory dance game session, participants danced to 3 songs categorized as 1, 2, or 3 stars according to the increasing complexity of the dance movements.

An Intervention With Dance and Yoga for Girls With Functional Abdominal Pain Disorders (Just in TIME): Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Dance is a popular physical activity among young girls [29] that can positively influence physical health outcomes [30], motor skills [31], and psychological well-being [32,33]. Through the expressive, creative, and aesthetic aspects of physical activity, dance holds potential to enhance body awareness and improve poor body image, which in turn strengthens self-esteem [34,35].

Yoga and Aerobic Dance for Pain Management in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: Protocol for a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Many specific PA programs, such as yoga and aerobic dance, have not yet been studied in this population [16] despite being recommended by several rheumatology organizations such as the Arthritis Foundation and being popular among youths, especially females [23,24]. The fact that yoga and aerobic dance appeal to female adolescents may encourage them to adopt and adhere to these programs longer [23-25].

There is evidence describing benefits of dance for chronic disease conditions.
