Responses were analyzed with descriptive statistics and descriptive content analysis.Results: Of the 81 respondents included in the analysis, 36 (44%) had used dance in practice, while 45 (56%) had not. Respondents were more likely to have used dance in practice if they had formal dance experience (X2 (1, n = 81) = 3.73, p = .044). The rationale for implementing dance included improving physical, psychosocial, and cognitive outcomes. Common barriers were clinician inexperience and insufficient resources, while a common concern about using dance was that they may not be taken seriously.Conclusion: Canadian physiotherapists used dance clinically in more diverse ways than reported in the scientific literature. Future work should evaluate these specific dance interventions and inform the development of clinical practice guidelines.","PeriodicalId":45944,"journal":{"name":"Arts & Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-20"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143664825","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of dance on HRV in people with Parkinson's (PwP).Methods: Ten PwP were recruited from a Parkinson's dance class and completed six sessions; the first half was danced sitting down, while the latter half was standing up. Breathing rate, skin temperature and HRV data were collected and analysed by repeated measures analysis of variance.Results: Analysing all six sections together showed skin temperature (p < 0.001), heart rate (HR; p = 0 .029), short-term HRV (SD1; p = 0.025), normalised standard deviation of all the R-R intervals (nSDRR; p = 0.028), and breathing rate (BR; p = 0.001) were significantly different.Conclusions: Significant changes in HR, SD1, nSDRR, BR and skin temperature of PwP occurred during all sections, showing dance improved autonomic function.

Pre- and post-performance surveys were analysed using paired t-tests and multiple linear regressions to assess attitudinal changes and predictors.Results: Quantitative analysis revealed significant improvements in sexual consent attitudes. Theatrical experience and demographic factors, including age and gender, were key predictors of attitudinal shifts.Conclusions: Research-based theatre is a promising medium for sex-positive sexuality education, fostering attitudinal change while minimizing traumatisation.

This paper explores the experiences and transition of a relational arts Academy to a virtual space for community artists with dementia.Methods: Using participatory action research, we conducted 10 research conversations with artist facilitators, collaborators, and leaders involved in the transition process, and 13 observations of online arts sessions and team member huddles.Results: Team members successfully translated relational arts virtually by intentionally embedding relational literacies, leveraging relational supports, and embracing creativity. Although initially reluctant, artist facilitators, collaborators, and leaders were opened to the possibilities of relational arts in virtual spaces.Conclusion: This research demonstrates the feasibility of relational arts for PLwD in virtual spaces, and offers insights to inform other virtual art programs for PLwD and their care partners.","PeriodicalId":45944,"journal":{"name":"Arts & Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143524982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If dance is perceived as enjoyable exercise, promoting it may increase exercise engagement in people with stroke.Objective: To examine perceptions of dance as exercise in people with chronic stroke after participating in an adapted dance program.Materials and methods: Qualitative interpretive description approach utilizing semi-structured face to face interviews with 18 people post-stroke who completed a 10-week adapted dance program.Results: Three themes were identified: (1) Dance is Exercise; (2) Dance Moves Beyond Exercise; and (3) Dance Harnesses Humanity in Exercise.Discussion: According to participants in this study, dance offers elements of traditional physical rehabilitation (i.e. improved balance) and creates a humanistic space where more intangible elements (i.e. liberation, personal growth) are accessed organically. These findings illuminate dance as a holistic approach to rehabilitation, as it addresses both the physical and psychosocial impacts of stroke.","PeriodicalId":45944,"journal":{"name":"Arts & Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143257012","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
