Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to analyse the effectiveness of a telematic dance intervention on the quality of life of older people.

This project is a controlled, randomized clinical trial. 54 people (Intervention Group, n=27; Control Group, n=27) between the ages of 60-80 will participate in the study.

Intervention Group participants will perform a 3-month telematic dance program based on choreographic work. The participants shall be measured 3 times, at baseline, post-intervention, and at 6-month post-intervention follow-up. Aside from the quality of life, variables of balance, risk of falling, number of falls, level of physical activity, mood, functionality, comorbidity, and quadriceps strength will also be measured.

Intervention group

Intervention Group participants will perform a 3-month telematic dance program based on choreographic work, 2 times per week

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Telematic dance program

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Telematic dance program

The dance program will consist of 24 sessions distributed twice a week for a total period of 3 months. Each session will include:

A) Warm up: It will consist of analytical and global movements of increasing intensity and stretching exercises. It will also involve body awareness and motor control exercises.

B) Choreography part: the participants must follow and learn the choreographies. Intensity ranges shall vary between low and moderate. (3-4 in Borg's Modified Scale (0-10)).

C) Cool down: It will consist of global movements of decreasing intensity, stretching, breathing, and relaxing exercises.

Control group

Control group will follow their daily routine without added exercise

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
