Summary

This study aims to evaluate intrinsic risk factors (muscle strength, joint range of motion, static and dynamic balance) that may lead to ankle injuries in ballet dancers and to examine the relationship between these factors and ankle injuries experienced in the last 12 months. By comparing ballet dancers who have suffered injuries requiring physical therapy or forcing them to take a break from dancing for more than one week in the past year with uninjured ballet dancers and a control group, the findings aim to contribute scientifically to the development of individualized rehabilitation programs and the safe and effective planning of return-to-stage processes. Furthermore, it is believed that these data may support the reduction of time and financial losses among dancers.
