Ballet shows numerous physiological benefits for dancers, with adaptations in posture, power, strength, stamina, and balance. A recent study from Simpkins and Yang ( 132: 1115-1125, 2024) showed that 45% of ballet-trained dancers experienced a fall during a standing-slip perturbation, compared with 82.6% of nondancers, along with shorter step latencies, durations, and speeds, which were accompanied by shorter electromyographic latencies in several leg muscles. This study demonstrates the viability of ballet training in aiding fall prevention in elderly individuals.
芭蕾舞对舞者有诸多生理益处，能使他们在姿势、力量、体能、耐力和平衡方面得到改善。辛普金斯和杨（《132: 1115 - 1125, 2024》）最近的一项研究表明，在站立滑倒扰动测试中，接受过芭蕾舞训练的舞者有45%会摔倒，相比之下，未接受过训练的人摔倒比例为82.6%。此外，接受过芭蕾舞训练的舞者步幅潜伏期、步幅持续时间和步速更短，同时腿部几块肌肉的肌电图潜伏期也更短。这项研究证明了芭蕾舞训练对预防老年人跌倒的可行性。
