Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Dance

Each session consists of a 60-minute dance class taught by a professional dancer. Dance classes begin with a seated warm-up with various coordination, rhythm, range of motion, memorization and coordination exercises. The level of difficulty of the exercises increases as the sessions progress. Balance is also an important part of training as well as the feeling of being part of a group, of interacting with each other. The hour ends with stretching in a sitting position.
