The act of balancing on a thin rope or on a beam is
mesmerizing. It the act that professionally pulls a large crowd and people
throng to see the artist at work. Walking on something that isn’t broad enough
to hold your two feet side by side is not something everyone can do. It is
however a requirement of magicians, trapeze artists, gymnasts, ballet dancers
and also sportsmen to some degree. It is all about balancing your body when
your mind is focused on keeping the balance on a thin rope or beam. Even
construction workers need to maintain their balance while working in tough
areas.
An aspiring gymnast certainly needs to practice on balancing
in the very beginning. Without balance there is no concept of gymnastics. Young
children especially girls as we see today are very interested in gymnastics. The
schools in UK are doing a great job by providing such classes so that the girls
can become cheerleaders or gymnasts when they grow up. Being a parent are you
as supportive to your daughter’s dreams and aspirations? If your answer is yes
then you must help her in her journey to success by giving her the balance beams for gymnastics at home on which she can train.
The beam is designed professionally for a child to practice
on. There are two types of beams available for training. One is a non foldable
beam while the second one is foldable from the center. The non foldable is 6
feet long and 10 cm wide enough to firmly place the foot on. The cover is made
of 100% polyester faux leather for a firm grip. The base is made up of wood for
strength and being lightweight too. The base is covered with foam so that it is
comfortable and the beam can be used for long hours of training.
Similarly the foldable balance beam for home is made
of the same compositions but comes with an added hinge in the center for
folding. It is ideal for homes with small storage areas as the folded beam can
be stowed away under a bed or behind a cupboard when not in use. When using it
first time place it near a wall so that the child can simply learn how to walk
by taking balancing advantage from the wall. As the walking gets better move it
to the center of the room so there is no support available and it comes all
around to balance.
