Hans de Rijke from The Hague in Holland called in during one of my radio shows and told us all about how he overcomes any and all challenges with walking by bouncing a ball. Isn’t that clever? He demonstrates his eloquent answer to the question how to improve gait and balance in the short video below.
His video demonstrates how this simple technique works for how to improve gait and balance. You are going to have to turn you head to the side to watch. Just count that as part of your day’s exercise program.
Do you have a ball hanging around at home? Why not give it a try? Hans explains that no one takes notice of a man bouncing a ball down the street. It helps make you feel a lot younger than walking down the street with a cane.
