Abstract
The contributions of artistic activities for People with Parkinson’s/PWP are widely debated in the worl literature, producing numerous experiences that contribute to health and quality of life (Silva, 2022). Among the artistic activities used therapeutically, we were particulary intersted in teaching of circus activities. Thus, this study, we aimed to survey the Brazilian prodution on the teaching of circus activities and health of People with Parkinson’s disease. The Search was conducted in Qualis-Periódicos (Capes, 2023) for the last two four year periods, 2012-2020, using the temrs circus/circus activities, health and Parkinson’s disease. A total of 499 jounals were analyzed, including 7 articles relevant to the study, distributed in the following áreas: health sciences: 2 articles; physical education: 1 article; interdisciplinary: 3 articles; and, multidisciplinary: 1 article, analyzed using the integrative review. We observed that, despite the contributions of existing research, there are no studies anchored in teachingn circus activities as a therapeutic possibility for people with Parkinson’s disease, motivating us to conduct further studies.
