Traditional Dancer Training Programmes (TDPs) are gaining recognition for their potential in promoting physical and social development among adolescent boys. A comprehensive search strategy was employed to identify relevant studies from databases focusing on TDPs for adolescent boys in Dar es Salaam between and . Studies were assessed using predefined inclusion criteria. Findings indicate that participants showed a significant improvement in dance performance (p < 0.05, Cohen's d = 0.8) with a moderate effect size compared to baseline scores. The review highlights the positive impact of TDPs on adolescent boys' physical health and engagement longevity but acknowledges the need for further longitudinal studies to establish causality. Further research should explore the long-term benefits and potential risks associated with such programmes, particularly in terms of mental health outcomes.
