How to Get Amazing Grace

Article Abstract:

People can enhance their balance skills and reduce falling accidents through different types of training. One effective method is the ancient art of tai chi, which focuses on weight shifting and the body's energy flow. Another method is balance training using equipment such as a wobble board, which hones balancing skills. Research shows that people lose their balance more easily as they age.
