DanaD Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 I used to have great balance and control, about last year, but then I grew about 5 inches since then. I know when you are taller (i'm 5'10 and 13) you have a different center of gravity, but what can I do to improve that? Quote Link to comment
Mel Johnson Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Growth bursts are always such fun! Your duty now, should you choose to accept it, is to find your center of gravity, and make sure that you use it now as you did before, when you had all that great control and balance. Hint: It's somewhere around your solar plexus, the pit of the stomach, right under your breastbone. Quote Link to comment
OperaDeParis Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 One of my teachers, told me that since I was rather tall (I'm 5'8'' 1/2) it would be really helpful for me to do pilates regularly to have a strong "core". Having a strong core, I think will help you with your balance and control. I hope this helps. Quote Link to comment
