Document Summary
Balancing can be defined as, stability produced by even distribution of weight on each side of the vertical axis. It is easier to balance with a wide base rather than a narrow base. The center of gravity should be aligned over the base of support. Static balance is maintaining a desired shape while staying still. Dynamic balance is keeping an on-balance position while moving, starting or stopping. Balance must be taught in a safe environment. Balance is an important skill for everyday activities as well as sports. Learn how to stop in balanced positions while traveling. Control level (glsp): learning experiences leading to skill development. Utilization level (glsp): learning experiences leading to skill development.
