Area of Science:

  • Neurorehabilitation
  • Movement Science
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Growing interest in dance as a therapeutic intervention for individuals following a stroke.
  • Existing literature suggests potential benefits of dance for post-stroke recovery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a scoping review of the literature on the feasibility, intervention procedures, and efficacy of dance for individuals post-stroke.
  • To map the current state of research regarding dance interventions and their impact on health-related outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Scoping review of studies published in English, identified through searches of PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, ProQuest, MedRxiv, and CINAHL.
  • Inclusion of original research describing dance interventions for individuals post-stroke, assessing any health-related outcome.
  • Data extraction by two reviewers, with results organized into themes and categories through author consensus.

Main Results:

  • 18 publications from 14 studies were included, encompassing quantitative, qualitative, mixed-methods, and community project descriptions.
  • Both in-person dance classes and dance exergaming were evaluated, with evidence suggesting feasibility and potential effectiveness.
  • Dance interventions may improve balance, reduce fall risk, enhance confidence, promote body comfort, increase motivation, and facilitate community reintegration.

Conclusions:

  • Dance is a feasible and potentially effective intervention for individuals post-stroke.
  • Evidence suggests benefits for balance, fall risk, psychological well-being, and social reintegration.
  • Further research requires rigorous designs, standardized outcome reporting, and exploration of cultural dance impacts.
