Dance therapy

The dance group will attend choreo-based dance therapy which includes both cognitive training to remember the choreo's and motor training to execute them (with and without music). Each session will consist of a ten-minute warm up, dance training and a ten-minute cool down. The participants will be taught three choreographies, which will increase in difficulty level. 1) floor work on a slow rhythm with focus on proprioception, abdominal muscle strength, coordination and working memory. 2) slow paced with a group part and a canon part with focus on working memory, static and dynamic balance and strength. Furthermore, it will require dynamic balance, walking and cognition. 3) higher rhythm and will be danced with a cane which will require more speed, coordination and dual tasking.
