“…Despite impaired event segmentation among people with neurodegenerative disorders like AD [ 12 , 13 ], verbal memory can be significantly improved following training with sung versus spoken words [ 63 ]. Our research team has contributed to a growing body of promising evidence for improved cognitive, motor, and neurophysiological functioning in individuals with AD and Parkinson’s disease following music and dance practice [ 22 , 64 ]. Together with the present results, these investigations lend further credit to the therapeutic efficacy of dance and music for transferring improvements across motoric and cognitive domains.…”

By chunking continuous streams of action into ordered, discrete, and meaningful units, event segmentation facilitates motor learning. While expertise in the observed repertoire reduces the frequency of event borders, generalization of this effect to unfamiliar genres of dance and among other sensorimotor experts (musicians, athletes) remains unknown, and was the first aim of this study. Due to significant overlap in visuomotor, language, and memory processing brain networks, the second aim of this study was to investigate whether visually priming expert motor schemas improves memory for words related to one’s expertise. A total of 112 participants in six groups (ballet, Bharatanatyam, and “other” dancers, athletes, musicians, and non-experts) segmented a ballet dance, a Bharatanatyam dance, and a non-dance control sequence. To test verbal memory, participants performed a retrieval-induced forgetting task between segmentation blocks. Dance, instrument, and sport word categories were included to probe the second study aim. Results of the event segmentation paradigm clarify that previously-established expert segmentation effects are specific to familiar genres of dance, and do not transfer between different types of experts or to non-dance sequences. Greater recall of dance category words among ballet and Bharatanatyam dancers provides novel evidence for improved verbal memory primed by activating familiar sensorimotor representations.

“…Prva hipoteza is- Kombinacija tjelesnih, ritmičkih, kognitivnih i emocionalnih elemenata čini ples kompleksnim i multidimenzionalnim te povećava vjerojatnost utjecanja na više komponenti funkcioniranja osoba s Parkinsonovom bolešću, 16,17 što je vidljivo u svim istraživanjima koja uključuju mjerenje BBS-a. 10,11,12,13,14 Balans je jedan od osnovnih problema osoba starije životne dobi, a posebno osoba s Parkinsonovom bolešću. Poznavajući dobrobiti tjelesne aktivnosti, prema preporukama Svjetske zdravstvene organizacije, svaka bi osoba trebala imati 150 minuta umjerene tjelesne aktivnosti tjedno.…”

“…Kod dugoročnih istraživanja 10,13,14,15 uočeno je poboljšanje u balansu i hodu, koja se nisu pokazala kod kratkoročne i intenzivne intervencije tangom. Ova istraživanja provedena su u trajanju od 12 do 13 tjedana, s maksimalno dva sata plesa u jednom tjednu.…”

Uvod: Neka istraživanja ukazuju na to da ples utječe na poboljšanje hoda i balansa osoba s Parkinsonovom bolešću te kako utjecaj glazbe i ritma facilitira kretanje i brzinu kod ljudi s Parkinsonovom bolešću. Blagotvorni učinci ritma i glazbe proizlaze iz aktiviranja neuralnih struktura uključenih u kretanje i određivanje vremena. Metode: Rad je sustavni pregled literature pretraživanjem relevantnih članaka baza podataka PubMed, PE-Dro, LILACS i Cochrane library od 2007. do 2020. godine. Kriteriji su istraživanja koja se bave utjecajem tanga na hod i balans kod osoba s Parkinsonovom bolešću primjenom standardiziranih testova Berg balans skale (BBS), testa Time up and go (TUG) i Unified Parkinsonʼs Disease Rating Scale III (UPDRS-III). Iz sustavnog pregleda literature od ukupno 65 pronađenih radova uključeno je šest članaka koji zadovoljavaju zadane kriterije. Rezultati: Uspoređujući trajanje intervencija, istraživanja su se provodila uglavnom kratkoročno i intenzivno te dugoročno i umjereno. Prakticiranjem tanga u kratkoročnom ili dugoročnom razdoblju dolazi ne samo do poboljšanja balansa nego i povećanja tjelesnog fitnesa. Rezultati kratkoročnih istraživanja pokazala su statistički značajne razlike kod testova UPDRS-III i BBS u korist skupina koje su kao intervenciju imale tango, dok se kod dugoročnih istraživanja uočavaju poboljšanja u balansu i hodu koja se nisu pokazala kod kratkoročne i intenzivne intervencije tangom. Zaključak: Dokazi o poboljšanju funkcionalne mobilnosti i balansa potiču na proširivanje spektra rehabilitacije kod osoba s Parkinsonovom bolešću jer je tango ples koji svojim ritmom, glazbom i širinom koraka itekako pronalazi mjesto u rehabilitaciji osoba s Parkinsonovom bolešću.
