Every class, we work on balance—but not always on one leg. This week, both feet are grounded… so does that make it easier? Nope.
Here’s why:
• We’re challenging the body and mind to adjust and stabilize through movement.
• We wobble—and that’s a good thing. Wobbling helps the nervous system build body awareness.
• We’re strengthening the ankles by squeezing a ball or block (especially helpful if you’ve ever dealt with ankle sprains or instability).
• And most importantly—we’re working on control. Lifting the heels is one thing, but can you lower them with control?
All of this adds up to stronger, more resilient balance.
In the photo, I’m using a bender ball, but a yoga block works just as well. Plus, the ball is green and it's my favorite color.
Keep practicing. Keep balancing.
