Especially as we age, balance is highly valuable to our well-being. It helps maintain proper posture and body mechanics, which is particularly important during movement & exercise to prevent injuries and assist with coordination.
Improving balance carries into further improvement of physical performance regardless of the activity.
Most of all, having adequate balance is a major factor in preventing falls – this is essential for the older population.
Try adding balance exercises such as these into your daily routine. It can be as simple as standing on one foot, a yoga “tree” pose, or a Warrior III with varying movement of the arms.
