For data collection, a divided questionnaire was used: General Information; Disability stages scale; Balance and Quality of Life.ResultsDuring class implementation, there were no falls, as all dance activities adhered to the details of the protocol steps without any changes. On average, patients completed 82.7% of activities. After 12 weeks, the experimental group had improvements in the UPDRS global score, in daily activities, and on motor examination. There was also improvement in balance scores and in the mobility domain of the quality of life in the experimental group.ConclusionThe samba protocol seems to be feasible and safe for patients with PD.
