Dance class as medicine? study tests if grooving helps kids with disabilities
NCT ID NCT07166055
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study will test whether eight months of therapeutic dance classes (two one-hour sessions per week) can improve movement, daily activities, and quality of life in children aged 3-14 with motor impairments. Researchers will compare the dance group to children who receive no intervention. The goal is to see if dance can be a fun, effective way to help these children function better at school and home.
