Summary

This study looks at whether learning solo Jive dancing can help hospital employees improve their leg strength, balance, body composition, and memory. Twenty hospital staff members will take part in an 8-week program, with 4 weeks of self-guided practice followed by 4 weeks of structured dance lessons. Researchers will measure changes in muscle strength, balance, and thinking skills to see if dancing is a fun and effective way to promote workplace wellness.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Currently employed as a full-time or part-time staff member at the hospital. * Aged between 18 and 65 years. * Voluntarily willing to participate in the 8-week dance program and complete all sequential phases (Phase A and Phase B). * Mentally and physically capable of performing moderate-to-high intensity structured exercise (such as solo Jive dancing). * Able to understand the study protocols and provide written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Pre-existing severe musculoskeletal injuries, severe joint degeneration, or acute pain that restricts dancing or weight-shifting movements. * Uncontrolled cardiovascular diseases (e.g., severe hypertension, arrhythmia, or unstable angina) that render high-intensity aerobic exercise unsafe. * Current pregnancy or plans to become pregnant during the 8-week intervention period. * Undergoing regular professional or competitive athletic training that could introduce significant confounding effects to the physical outcomes. * Any other medical condition, severe cognitive impairment, or physical limitation judged by the investigator to pose a safety risk during exercise or interfere with data collection.
