Belly dance is an appreciably under researched dance form. As such, little is known of the injury prevalence and risk factors for injury among this dance population. Therefore, the primary objective of this study was to examine the most common injury sites and to identify potential factors associated with injury risk within the belly dance community of New Zealand over a 12-month retrospective period. Dancers who had practiced or performed belly dance during that time span were surveyed using an online or paper-based questionnaire. One hundred and nine injury questionnaires (all from female dancers) qualified for the final analysis. The participants had a median age of 44.3 years and danced a median of 3.0 hours per week. The injury rate was 37% (40 injuries in 109 dancers surveyed), the injury incidence proportion was 24.8% (27 dancers reporting at least one injury), and the per hour injury incidence rate was 1.69 per 1,000 dance hours. Of the two most recently sustained injuries reported, lower limb injuries were the most common, followed by trunk injuries. Age, total dance hours per week, and participation in a non-dance exercise regimen of any kind were associated with a decreased risk of injury; performing regularly was associated with an increased injury rate. It is concluded that an understanding of the incidence and sites of injuries may help create awareness that belly dance can be injurious, and subsequently lead to the development of future interventions.
肚皮舞是一种明显缺乏研究的舞蹈形式。因此，对于这一舞蹈群体中的损伤患病率和损伤风险因素知之甚少。所以，本研究的主要目的是在回顾过去12个月的时间段内，调查新西兰肚皮舞群体中最常见的损伤部位，并确定与损伤风险相关的潜在因素。在此期间练习或表演过肚皮舞的舞者通过在线或纸质问卷进行了调查。109份损伤问卷（均来自女性舞者）符合最终分析要求。参与者的年龄中位数为44.3岁，每周跳舞时间中位数为3.0小时。损伤率为37%（在接受调查的109名舞者中有40人受伤），损伤发生率为24.8%（27名舞者报告至少有一次损伤），每1000个舞蹈小时的每小时损伤发生率为1.69。在报告的最近两次受伤中，下肢损伤最为常见，其次是躯干损伤。年龄、每周总的跳舞时长以及参与任何一种非舞蹈锻炼方案都与损伤风险降低有关；定期表演与损伤率增加有关。结论是，了解损伤的发生率和部位可能有助于提高人们对肚皮舞可能造成伤害的认识，并随后促进未来干预措施的制定。
