Hello @ray666, @lenchiksf, @bonnieb81, @jakedduck1, @sueinmn, @loribmt, and to everyone else who is interested in improving their Balance and Gait.

Mayo Clinic posted an article about practical tips to help us not lose our balance and be prone to falls. Here is a link to the article,
https://www.mayoclinic.org/connected-care/4-surprising-ways-to-lower-your-risk-of-falling/cpt-20524961
What I found most interesting was the suggestion of activities including Tai Chi, walking, water work-outs, and dancing.

I have used Tai Chi and water work-outs. What have you tried to help with balance?

Hi, Teresa

I'm always encouraged by balance advice that promotes "keep moving." I'm a great believer in that. It goes back to my earliest days dealing with arthritis. I would hear people advise "keep moving," but at first I doubted that advice. Then I tried it, and WOW! it really did lessen of not eliminate my arthritis pain. Thanks for this link. I've bookmarked it for ready reference.

Ray
