Abstract
This article evaluates the effect of a supplementary resistance training program on passive and active hip external rotation on a ballet group. Fifteen Brazilian ballet dancers participated in the study. The passive hip external rotation was evaluated by a hip articular mobility test and the active hip external rotation in the first position en dehors in a self-selected angle. The resistance training protocol was based on The Best Performance Movement exercise method. Four 20-minute sessions per week were performed for three months. The paired t-test was performed to compare the passive and active hip external rotation pre- and post-training, with a significance level of 0.05. The paired t test showed that hip active external rotation improved after the resistance training, suggesting that the hip external rotation is muscle strength dependent.
