When you are young, balance is an automatic reflex and you can quickly recover from a trip or stand up after a fall. However, studies show that balance naturally begins to decline after age 40 and one in three people aged 65 will suffer a fall.
Your balance is regulated by 5 Factors:
- Vision
- Reflexes
- Muscle Mass and Strength
- Proprioception (The ability to feel the body in space)
- Inner Ear
Changes linked to growing older or sedentary lifestyles affect all of these areas:
- Weaker eyesight
- Slower reflexes
- Weak and stiff muscles and joints
- Poor circulation (leads to lack of physical sensation)
- Vertigo / Dizziness (due to deposits or crystals in inner ear)
As you get older you may exercise less, gain weight, and start to feel less confident in your body and your balance.
However, the good news is that with a proper exercise and mindfulness program, almost anyone can improve their balance.
Bo Yoga blends the best of yoga, tai chi and mindful movement into a comprehensive system that includes the support of a Bo Yoga Staff; a unique prop which assists with leverage, balance and stability.
Nate Guadagni, the founder of Bo Yoga, brings over a decade of experience into this program and will lead you through daily exercises that are fun, challenging and effective.
