Dance helps...balance can be trained into the brain....wish I had known what I learned in 2003 all my life...even kayaking helped my balance, besides being wonderful time outdoors with friends. When I started kayaking couldn't hardly get into the boat without a struggle...after a month or so of balancing on the river...could step right in and sit down.
Also I found papaya about that time and loved them...that seemed to have a large effect on my health and abilities too. Now I work hard in the garden, miss kayaking alot, but don;t have anyone to go with here...everyone seems to like whitewater (not me)
Exercise hard...but remember to stretch first and cool down by stretching after!!
