| Abstract | Therapeutic dancing has been advocated as an effective adjunct to conventional physical therapies for people living with Parkinsons disease (PD). This systematic review evaluates studies on the outcomes of different dance genres on mobility and quality of life in PD. We searched databases including CINHAL (1982-2015), Medline (1922-2015), Scopus (1996-2015), Web of Science (2002-2015), Embase (2007-2015), PEDro (1999-2015) and the Cochrane Library (1996-2015). The key words were: Parkinsons disease, Parkinson∗, Parkinsonism, dance, dance therapy, dance genres, safety, feasibility, and quality of life. Two independent investigators reviewed the texts. Only randomized controlled trials, quasirandomized controlled trials, and case series studies were included. There was emerging evidence that therapeutic dance can be safe and feasible for people with mild to moderately severe PD, with beneficial effects on walking, freezing of gait, and health related quality of life.

This systematic review evaluates studies on the outcomes of different dance genres on mobility and quality of life in PD. PD can sometimes be associated with depression and withdrawal from participation in social activities. Other forms of physical activity such as cycling walking hydrotherapy and martial arts could be helpful adjuncts to traditional therapy Evidence is emerging that dancing can be a beneficial form of exercise for people with mild to moderately severe PD. There is a need to examine the extent to which outcomes are influenced by factors such as external cues music partners and motivation imparted from a dancing teacher. Further studies should be directed towards understanding the relative contribution of music to dance outcomes as well as comparing the outcomes of different dance genres
