Cerebral Palsy
Conditions
Interventions
(b) motor coordination: coordinated movements of upper and lower limbs
This will be a study with two intervention groups: Dance Group and Pilates Group. The Dance Group will consist of twelve dance sessions, lasting one hour, twice a week, and will consist of four series
(c) body image: interaction between performer and environment (spatio-temporal orientation)
coupling of simultaneous components of the movement (temporal coordination)
proprioception (internal knowledge / perception of movement)
(d) dexterity and agility: combination of successive components of the movement (anticipatory adjustments in the course of movement)
trunk and head movements that aid spatial orientation and stimulate notions of balance. The Pilates Group will consist of twelve sessions of Mat Pilates, lasting one hour, twice a week, which will con
(b) strength exercises and sensorimotor integration (two sets of ten repetitions): Pre-Hundred, The Shell, Quadrupédia, Lunge
(c) muscle relaxation (a series of twenty seconds): Relaxation in the ball in the ventral decubitus. The interventions will be implemented in suitable places for the respective protocols.

| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to find benefits of using dance and pilates in people with cerebral palsy in terms of social participation using the World Health Organization's Disability Assessment Scale (WHODAS 2.0), flexibility with Fleximetry, postural balance and stability from Stabilometry, body satisfaction with the Body Shape Questionnaire, quality of life through the Medical Outcome Study 36-item Short-From Health Survey (SF-36), as well as improvement of body posture analyzed with the Simetrograph and gait pattern using the Accelerometer. The assessments will be conducted before and after the interventions. | — |
