Standing Balance Poses and Ankle Strength - Better Balancing Part 2

There's a direct relationship between being able to balance and ankle strength.

Practice balancing until the muscles in the front of your ankle ache slightly. This may be 30 seconds into a pose or 3 minutes.

The idea of practicing until these muscles ache is to build strength in this area. 

The more strength the better you will be at balancing. 

Here's a tip: when you are standing around, hook one foot around the back of your knee and practice balancing. This can be done, while waiting for a train, tram, bus or elevator. Better still, hook one foot around the back of your knee while travelling on a train, tram, bus or elevator.
