I have a unilateral BK patient, young lady who is an actress and just got a role playing a ballet dancer. She plans to start taking professional dance lessons soon. It sounds like she doesn't have much experience with dance, but she is athletic and is asking about using her blade leg (Ossur Nike Flex Run) to dance with.
Looking for any advice here to pass onto her. Or prosthetic design recommendations. Dance is a bit out of my wheelhouse, any info would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
