Abstract

Abstract Date Presented 04/21/2023 The purpose of this study was to systematically review the best available evidence regarding ballet and dance therapy for children with intellectual disabilities. Of the 21 articles, 20 found statistically significant improvements in gross motor function and social development. Dance therapy is a unique form of therapy within the OT scope of practice because it uses the activity or occupation of dance to promote play, enhance mobility, and improve performance skills.
