This review addresses the possible structural and functional adaptations of the postural
function to motor experience. Evidence suggests that postural performance and strategy …

Introduction Dance is an effective and motivating form of exercise for older women, but few
studies have quantified the benefits of virtual dance classes nor, specifically, ballet. This …

Background Human performance in classical ballet is a research field of growing interest in
the past decades. Technology used to acquire data in human movement sciences has …

The aim of this study was to assess static and dynamic balance related to rotational
movements en pointe and en demi pointe in ballet dance students. The study group …

Humans have to acquire postural robustness to maintain stability against internal and
external perturbations. Human standing has been recently modelled using an intermittent …

We aimed to investigate joint coordination of lower limbs in dancers during tiptoe standing
and the relationship between joint coordination and muscle coactivation. Seven female …

Joint constraint interferes with the coordinative structure in joint movements used to optimize
postural stability. This study aimed to investigate changes in postural synergy when the …

kinaesthetic stimulation. Materials and methods. Research was conducted from April 11 to …

The purpose of this study was to examine the characteristics of centre of pressure (COP) and
centre of mass (COM) fluctuations in ballet dancers standing quietly. Ten healthy young …

We aimed to examine whether the changes in neuromuscular strength indices and balance
affect the gait patterns of five fundamental ballet techniques performed on a single leg after 8 …
