Senior Balance

This session, led by instructor Gay Gasper, is dedicated entirely to enhancing senior balance, strength, and alignment. The video will show you key techniques for working on balance, including specific exercises like calf raises (to combine strength and balance), and the proper way to teach challenging movements such as the 360-degree sit and stand. You will learn critical coaching cues for proper alignment, how to execute a safe warm-up (including the “5 ups and downs” and lead changes), and methods for increasing the challenge of movements like “the clock”. The session also covers targeted exercises for strengthening the body while shifting and getting ground strength up, such as with the “kicking a soccer ball” exercise. Finally, the video provides important insights into teaching methodology for seniors, including advice on maintaining the music beat, and concludes with a detailed instruction on how to teach the “roll up” during the final stretch. This video is a must-watch for understanding the dynamics of senior falls and for learning advanced techniques for single-leg and closed-eye balancing.
