Sažetak
The aim of this study was to identify the characteristic pain prevalence in street dancers in order to indirectly affect dancers' overall health and prolong their dancing careers. Dancers who trained for more than 15 hours per week have reported significantly higher pain occurrence in the upper and lower back region. High percentage value of pain prevalence progressing among the study groups which are defined by the hours of training per week was recorded in the back, shoulder and knee region. Early detection of low pain intensity can help prevent the injuries as well as improve the professional guidance and appropriate safety requirements for the street dancers.
