Amazing Video – Is there Bal-A-Vis-X in your school?

Bal-A-Vis-X is a series of some 300 exercises, most of which are done with sand-filled bags and/or racquetballs, often while standing on a Bal-A-Vis-X balance board. Requiring multiple thousands of mid-line crossings in three dimensions, these exercises are steadily rhythmic, with a pronounced auditory foundation, executed at a pace that naturally results from proper physical techniques. Bal-A-Vis-X enables the whole mind-body system to experience the symmetrical flow of a pendulum.

This carefully modulated system of exercises can become increasingly complex OR increasingly simplified/modified for those with severe special needs. In group (school) settings the program demands cooperation, promotes self-challenge, fosters peer teaching.

Who is Bal-A-Vis-X for?

In the ‘80s the exercises were for the struggling students in my 1st grade classroom in Wichita, Kansas, USA.

In the ‘90s they were for my struggling middle school students in Wichita. That’s when our trainings for other teachers began, first in KS then coast to coast, wherever we were invited.
