Abstract

There are many studies that corroborate the benefits of the assiduous practice of physical activity in the elderly population, which encompass many aspects of life, either through physical aspects, or as is the case of the present investigation, where it is intended to evaluate the changes produced on cognitive aspects (Colcombe y cols.., 2003), emotional (Kattenstroth y cols, 2010), and healthy physical condition of the older person (Rikli y Jones 1999). Hence, the need to work these aspects through the use of rhythm as the main means of physical practice, through its Latin modality called “Bachata”, where through dance, it is intended to demonstrate its relationship with the benefits on the state of mind, Functional mobility and personal confidence of those who practice it, as well as in the balance and reduction of anxiety and depression (Cobo y cols., 2011). The present investigation intends to integrate all the mentioned variables, through a directed intervention of Bachata, of six months of duration, organized by the University of Almería, and in collaboration with the Senior’s Classroom of the same, with a weekly frequency two days and one hour each day.
