The static balance assessment in ballet dancers: The effect of vision and leg preference
Original language description
The goals of this paper were to investigate the static balance in ballet dancers and to determine the effect of vision and the leg preference. Fifteen professional ballet dancers and thirteen non-dancers were asked to maintain balance in bipedal and single leg stance. Each posture was tested on dominant and non-dominant leg and in eyes-open and eyes-closed condition. Significantly lower values (p{0.05) was achieved of standard deviation of centre of pressure (COP) movement and mean velocity of COP displacements in mediolateral (ML) direction in dancers, but in the anteroposterior (AP) direction ballet dancers obtained significantly higher values (p{0.05) in both observed variables. Without vision during single leg stance was the values of variables significantly higher (p{0.05) in both groups. The leg preference was proved only in dancers group. These findings indicate that the ballet dancers are more stable in frontal and less stable in sagittal plane compared to controls and that the
