Our study also aims to evaluate the compliance of patients to the exercise programs given to postmenopausal osteopenic women. -What is the effect of regular Turkish regional dances on balance, aerobic capacity, muscle strength, quality of life, Bone Mineral Densitometry and Bone Turnover Markers in postmenopausal osteopenic women?
