   Some people learn best when they are moving and should practice balance exercises to be sure that they are safe with their movement patterns. Please see more information at   http://www.exerciseforbalance.com/buy-now Those individuals who have brains that process best through touching and moving rank high in kinesthetic intelligence. Kinesthetic intelligence Is a very tactile, energetic, multi sensory type of thinking that involves the control of body movements, the ability to coordinate yourself and the capacity to handle objects and things around you skillfully. These kinds of movement oriented thinkers need to touch, feel and move things around. To understand and retain information, they have to maneuver or experience what they learn. Kinesthetic thinkers like to explore their environment through touch, need to move when thinking, enjoy exercise, demonstrate good dexterity in position with physical tasks. People who are Kinesthetic learners would answer yes to the following questions:

1- I need to explore a new environment through touch and movement.

2- I consider myself to have a good sense of timing when it comes to physical activities.

3- I find it difficult to sit for long periods of time, especially in a classroom environment.

4- I often feel compelled to move about in order to help myself not lose concentration.

5- I am good at activities involving dexterity with my hands like sewing.

6- I enjoy movement activities over sedentary activities.  

    These people who are high in Kinesthetic intelligence need to practice balance training activities in order to have good stability during all their movement activities.

Balance Exercises For Movement Activities

       People who are Kinesthetic learners often find themselves being very active and need to practice balance exercises in order to have proper stability during all their movement activities. As an example, those who are high in Kinesthetic intelligence would be able to process information in a classroom setting while sitting on a Swiss ball rather than sitting in a nonmoving chair. For these kind of kinesthetic  learners however, it would be to their benefit for them to practice certain stability exercises to make sure they do not fall off the ball during class. As an example, they can learn to center their body weight through the middle of their body when standing. They can practice this stability exercise by standing with their feet shoulder width apart and centering their body weight as a plumbline through their entire body into the middle of their arches. By finding their center body mass in standing they can learn to control how their body weight shifts forward and backwards as well as side to side. Once they can control their body weight in standing, they can transfer this steadiness skill to sitting on the ball in the classroom. These stability techniques as well as other balance exercises are demonstrated by a qualified physical therapist in the exercise for balance DVD. You can practice along with this balance training video in the convenience of your own home to help improve overall stability and reduce the potential of a fall.
