Objectives
Determine the prevalence of lower limb hypermobility in elite dancers and secondarily to describe the patterns of mobility. Design Cross sectional. Setting Self-report questionnaires and physical assessments were undertaken at a tertiary dance institution and a professional ballet company. Participants Fifty-seven pre-professional and 29 professional ballet dancers (21±4years, 64% female, mean 13.7years training) were recruited. Main outcome measures Lower Limb Assessment Score (LLAS) was used to assess hypermobility. Prevalence was determined by descriptive statistics, between-leg and -group comparisons were analysed using the chi-square statistic and the pattern of mobility by cluster analyses. Results The right leg was significantly more hypermobile than the left for the whole cohort (44% vs 40% meeting ≥7/12 for the LLAS; LLAS mean/12(SD): right:5.0(2.4) and 7.6(1.9); left:4.8(2.1) and 6.7(2.0) in pre-professionals and professionals respectively (p = 0.02)). Subtalar pronation (p Conclusions This paper presents unique lower limb hypermobility profiles identified in elite dancers. Previous article in issue |
