Parkinson's disease (PD), characterized as progressive and neurodegenerative, is one of the most frequent neurological diseases of the present time. Patients with PD present motor impairment, such as muscle stiffness, rest tremor, slow movements, postural instability, and gait and balance alterations; And non-motor factors, such as cognitive and neuropsychiatric disorders, depressive symptoms, and a consequent decrease in quality of life (QL). Dance can be an important tool for the complementary treatment of these patients, when added to traditional drug therapies and physiotherapies. Thus, the present study aims to verify the effects of a program of dance and walking in gait and QL of 38 adults with PD, divided in two groups, and to compare the aspects of functionality, dynamic stability, kinematics and QL. The data collection instruments will be a personal data sheet of the patients, the Hoehn and Yahr Scale (H&Y), the Rehabilitation Index (RI), the motor part of the Unified PD Rating Scale (UPDRS III), the Timed Up ang Go test (TUG), the kinematic analysis of walking and the Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ-39). Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 20.0 will be used to analyze the data, using the Wilcoxon test for non-parametric data and the paired t-test for parametric data, in order to compare pre and post intervention data. The significance level adopted for both tests will be p <0.05. It is expected that a program of 24 sessions of dance classes will be as or more effective than a program of 24 walking sessions for the gait quality and QL for the participants of the study.

| Dance Program | Other | The dance program consists of dance classes inspired by the rhythm of Forró and Samba. The sessions are divided into four stages: 1) stretching and sensitization of the body, with the support of chairs; 2) balance and rhythm exercises, with the support of the bar; 3) dance inspired by the genres worked - Forró and Samba; 4) Fun activities that stimulate socialization or with visual clues, working displacements, motor coordination, rhythm, improvisation and creativity. 24 sessions, twice a week, which session take 60 min. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| The change in functional mobility | The functional mobility will be assessed using the Timed Up and Go Test. This first outcome will be evaluated before and after 12 weeks of Dance Classes and Walking Training in both groups. | Before and after 12 weeks after the intervention |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Walking Program | Other | The walking program consists of 3 moments: 1) a brief warm-up of free walking for 3 minutes in the comfortable velocity; 2) then walking according to the training cycle, the intensity will be between 60 and 80% of the reserve heart rate; 3) a relaxation. 24 sessions, twice a week, which session take 60 min. |

Quality of Life will be assessed using Parkinsons' Disease Questionnaire (PDQ-39). The Quality of Life questionnaire will be evaluated before and after 12 weeks of Dance Classes and Walking Training in both groups. Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ39) measures patients' quality of life through 39 questions. The instrument is divided into eight dimensions: mobility, activities of daily living, emotional well-being, stigma, social support, cognition, communication and bodily discomfort. In total, patients answer 39 questions that should be noted among five response options: "never," "rarely," "sometimes," "often" or "always." |
| Before and after 12 weeks after the intervention |
| The change in motor symptoms | Motor symptoms will be assessed using Unified Parkinsons' Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS). The motor symptoms will be evaluated before and after 12 weeks of Dance Classes and Walking Training in both groups. We will use the Part III of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS III), which measures the motor symptoms of the disease. Part III of the UPDRS is composed of 14 items, covering questions 18 to 31 of the scale. Each item has 5 response options that add up to 0 to 4 points, how bigger is the total score on the scale; greater is the patient's motor impairment. | Before and after 12 weeks after the intervention |
