The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of Activate Bailando, a 6-week community-based dance class offered in Spanish to older adults. 20 older adults in the Madison, Wisconsin area who are enrolled in Activate Bailando will complete a pre-and post-program test within 10 days for program start and completion.
The primary aim is to evaluate the feasibility of the Activate Bailando program based on measures of recruitment, retention, attendance, and acceptability.
The secondary aim is to evaluate the preliminary effectiveness of the program on metrics of balance, mobility, social connectedness, and fear of falling.
