No falls, my balance can go off as I am walking but use ballerina like moves to counteract my being off balance. I go up on my big toe instead of swinging my foot forward. I will poss there as a ballerina as long as I need to. It saves me so many times. I realized I have been developing this for years.
I also throw my arms out to give me more stability as needed.
It takes practice. Keep going.

Now, please excuse me, this is no joke. I am going to go join the circus.
The fire Circus. I have acting in my blood.
I will share the gift of laughter, and also sneak some healing in.
It’s who I am.

The circus! What fun, @brightwings! I hope you keep us in the loop with this new fun activity. Maybe post some pictures?
By the way, I'm really interested in learning more about the ballet and going up on your toes to keep your balance. Do you do this all the time or just when you feel off-balance? Swinging the arms is a great idea. (I've never had a stroke but have a Parkinson's type disorder that results in balance problems)
