Ballet dancers may be predisposed to hip injuries because of the unique demands placed on the hips during dance training and performance. Hip arthroscopy can be used to address several of these symptomatic disorders, including hip instability and femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). After hip arthroscopy, ballet dancers undergo a rehabilitation program to allow for healing, range of motion restoration, and progressive strengthening. Once patients complete the standard postoperative therapy program, a paucity of information is available to guide dancers back to the advanced hip movements involved in ballet. Therefore, the purpose of this clinical commentary is to present a stepwise rehabilitation protocol with return to ballet progression for dancers undergoing hip arthroscopy for instability or FAIS. Particular emphasis is placed on movement-specific exercises for ballet performers, and objective clinical metrics, to guide return to dance progression.
