Facilitating Better Balance Part 2

I believe working on balance should be done everyday as balance is one of the physical attributes we lose with age.
 
Golf Benefits Of Better Balance:
- Greater sense of body awareness
- Facilitates sense of being grounded and balanced in the address position
- Facilitates more fluidity during the dynamic phase of the swing
- Develops awareness of weight transfer
- Balanced finish position with 90% of your weight on your left side.

Standing Balancing Quad Stretch With Golf Club:
Par / Birdie Levels:
Using your club for balance place your right foot in your right hand. Tip: keep your knees side by side. Pull your navel in supporting your low back. Press your foot into your hand, hand into your foot and press your heel away from your gluts. Challenge your balance by removing the club. Hold for five to ten breaths and switch sides.

Half Moon Balancing Pose:
Par Level:
Practice this pose with the body touching the wall. Place your right hand on your yoga block, approximately six inches in front of your right foot. Shift your weight into your right leg and lift your left foot off the floor. Tip: Modify this pose by placing your hand on the seat of a chair. Perhaps your foot lifts off the floor a few inches….no worries. Hold for a five to ten breaths and switch sides.
