Brief Summary:
The goal of this study is to determine whether it is possible for people with lower limb amputation LLA to perform adapted tap dance whether an adapted tap dance program would be enjoyable and whether it may improve balance and balance confidence
There is a lack of research investigating therapeutic interventions for people with lower limb amputation LLA Tap dance encourages balance and novel movements of the limbs while providing auditory feedback from the feet that provide information about the foots contact with the ground which may help prosthesis users gain a better ability to understand where their prosthetic foot is in space As with most forms of dance tap is usually taught and practiced in a group setting which encourages community involvement It has been shown to be safer than many forms of dance due to low impact forces It also as a genre can incorporate canes chairs and partner work providing the ability to modify stepsmoves when required so that they remain practical achievable and safe for people with mobility limitations while still enabling participation It therefore may be an accessible dance medium to help improve balance balance confidence and build community for people with LLA
Participants will be asked to
come to 1 hour dance classes once per week for 8 weeks
do mobility tests before and after the program
complete questionnaires before during and after the program The total time for participation is approximately 8-10 weeks
