Balance

Balance & walking pair

Single-leg stands near support plus mindful surfaces—complements walking foundation.

Balance + walk loop

Walking challenges balance forward; stands challenge single-leg control. Together they support stairs, curbs, and uneven paths.

Stand practice

  • 20 sec each leg at counter, eyes open
  • Progress to eyes closed only if steady
  • Stop if dizzy—discuss with clinician

On the walk

  • Shorter steps on slick or cobble surfaces
  • Hands free—not phone scrolling on curbs
  • Pause before stepping down from high curbs

Home footing

Rug pads, night lights on hall paths, and dry entry mats reduce indoor slips—pairs with outdoor walk literacy.
