Balance is like health – you don’t appreciate it until it’s gone! The consequences of poor balance are many fold and can lead to falls, hospitalisations and fear.
There is no dispute that balance is something that deteriorates as we age. This deterioration can start as early as our forties. However, we can train the balance systems so as to minimise the risk of falls, along with their potentially serious consequences.
In this manual you will learn about the primary systems that make up balance and how they are integrated in our bodies. You will gain a comprehensive understanding of common causes of loss of balance and the strategies you can implement to work with these conditions. Even though the components of the balance system are complex, here they are explained using easy to understand terminology and with the focus on the practical implications for you as a movement teacher.
This manual can be read on its own, but we recommend it as part of our online course with the same title, Chucking a Wobbly.
