The aim of this scoping literature review (SCR) was to analyze the impact of dance on adults with intellectual disabilities, specifically examining its influence on their mobility, interpersonal relationships, well-being, and overall quality of life. A total of 15 papers were reviewed in order to explore the effects of dance on the well-being and quality of life of adults with intellectual disabilities. The findings indicated significant improvements in body awareness, increased engagement in physical activity, and enhanced mental health. This SCR demonstrates that dance is an effective means of facilitating social interaction among adults with intellectual disabilities, both with their therapists and family members. Additionally, the review uncovered valuable data on dance therapy programs designed for adults with intellectual disabilities, highlighting their potential to promote physical activity and reduce stress levels.
