Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effects of a structured line dance program on cognitive function, physical performance, and quality of life in older women with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). A total of 75 participants aged 60-75 with a diagnosis of MCI will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: a high-beat-per-minute (HBLD) line dance group, a low-beat-per-minute (LBLD) line dance group, or a control group receiving no intervention. The intervention will last for 12 weeks, with sessions held three times per week for 60 minutes. Outcome measures include the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), physical function tests, and a quality of life questionnaire. The purpose of this study is to explore the effectiveness of non-pharmacological, rhythm-based exercise interventions for improving cognitive and physical health in older adults with cognitive decline.
