Star Excursion Balance Exercise

Place some tape on the floor in a star shape. The angle between each arm of the star is 45 degrees. Stand in the middle of the star on one ankle. This is usually your weaker or injured side. Reach as far along each arms of the star as you can without losing balance or putting your foot down. This is an excellent balance exercise.

This is awesome! Thank you for sharing it. I’ll use it for myself and my own kids…but as a teacher I think it’s a super practical, kinaesthetic “calm” activity for students too.
