Background/Objectives: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder responsible for both motor and non-motor disturbances impairing motor behavior. This complexity necessitates integrated, multidisciplinary, and comprehensive models of care. A new and interesting complementary approach is represented by "Dance Well", i.e., an artistic, multisensory dance intervention based on art and music. This pilot study aims to evaluate the efficacy, feasibility, and safety of a 4-week Dance Well (DW) program in PD patients in early-medium disease stages. Methods: Twenty-four PD patients (H&Y ≤ 3; MoCA score ≥ 13.8) were enrolled and randomly allocated into two groups, both with a twice-per-week frequency and lasting 4 weeks: one group underwent the DW program, while the other underwent conventional physiotherapy (CPT). Demographic, biometric, and clinical data were collected. To study the treatment effect, motor (Unified PD Rating Scale-III, Timed Up and Go Test, Berg Balance Scale, 6-Minute Walk Test, and Falls Efficacy Scale), cognitive (Corsi Supra Span Test, Trail Making Test A and B-A), and emotional-motivational (Beck Depression Inventory, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Apathy Evaluation Scale) outcome measures were assessed, before and after the rehabilitation program. To study treatment compliance and safety, the number of dropouts and any adverse events (such as injuries and falls) were recorded. Results: All outcome measures improved in both groups. The percentage of improvement in outcome measures assessing attention and motivation was greater in the DW group. No dropouts, falls, or injuries occurred. Conclusions: In the early-medium stages of PD, DW could be considered a feasible and safe complementary treatment, useful in improving motor, cognitive, and emotional-motivational symptoms.
