Methods: Fifty elderly women with reduced balance function, admitted to the Qingbar Elderly Care Center of Chongqing Medical University from December 2022 to December 2023, were randomly selected and divided into two groups. The aerobic exercise group (25 patients) received traditional treatment and rehabilitation nursing, while the balance rhythm dance intervention group (25 patients) received the balance rhythm dance intervention in addition to traditional treatment and rehabilitation nursing. The Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) were used as evaluation indicators to compare the intervention effects between the two groups. Results: The data revealed that the balance rhythm dance intervention significantly improved the motor ability and balance function of elderly women in the intervention group (P < 0.01), with statistically significant differences observed. Conclusion: The balance rhythm dance program plays a critical role in promoting the rehabilitation of motor function and balance ability in elderly women, effectively enhancing their quality of life.展开更多

Materials and Methods： Seventy five members of the Fire of Anatolia dance group （mean age： 26.8 ± 5.2; 18-38 years） performers were evaluated. The dancers suffered 14 orthopedic injuries requiring surgery （3 meniscus tears, 2 anterior cruciate ligament tears one of which is with posterolateral corner tear, 1 posterior cruciate ligament tear, 1 patellar dislocation, 1 scaphoid fracture, 1 extensor tendon cut in hand, 1 infrapatellar bursitis, 2 Hoffa’s fat pad syndromes, 2 symptomatic medial plicaes） during a nine-year period. Follow-up time was 51 ± 41.9 （29.5-92） months. Results： Following surgeries, the dancers could restart rehearsals in 12.7 ± 9 （range： 4 to 36） weeks and perform live on the stage in 16.2 ± 12.2 （range： 5 to 52） weeks on average. Conclusion： Males were 8.64 times more likely to suffer an injury requiring surgery compared to the females （p = 0.003） and twelve （85.7%） of these injuries were lower extremity injuries and were all located in the knee in Anatolian folk dancers.展开更多

It is an indispensable source of Chinese classical dance, court dance and professional dance creation. Chinese folk dances are characterized by unpretentiousness, diverse forms, rich content, and vivid images. But these require professional dancers to express through professional training. Even amateur dances need to be completed through well-trained and emotionally full actors.⑴ In the process of training, in addition to the necessary basic skills and other physical training, we also need to train the demeanor. We often say that the eyes are the windows of the soul, and the folk dance is more about expressing a feeling to the audience. If the dancer don't have a good performance and face expression, he or she can't express the dance work at all. Therefore, this article takes the training of national folk dance as the starting point, combining technical training, stage perfonnance, professional dancers and amateur dancers, taking the Uygur as an example.展开更多
