When we lose or regain our balance, it is mostly recognized through HOW we move. For balance, we do not only use one sensory organ, but three different sensory inputs: the vestibular system (inner ear), vision, and proprioception (cells in joints that indicate to our nervous system their position in space).

The good news is that physical balance can be improved at any age through movement and exercises to develop your kinesthetic sense and the use of your vestibular system. The Feldenkrais® Awareness Through Movement® lessons in this series will provide an opportunity to improve overall daily movement like sitting, standing, walking, and the transition in between.
