Class Experience

In this class, students will learn and practice several skills to help with balance.  Students are welcome to use a 2x6 board on the floor to practice on or could use even a long towel folded slim for them to practice the drills on.
Class structure will be as follows:
5 minutes: introductions, warm-up, and balance practice without beam
20 minutes: various drills to help with balancing on a balance beam 
5 minutes: stretch

Students will remain very active the entire class and music will be played to help with motivation.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Students will need to wear comfortable clothing to move around in. If balance beam is more than a couple of inches off the ground, students will need a parent or someone to spot them.
Supply List
Each student will need comfortable clothing and shoes that are safe to exercise in like tennis shoes (unless doing it barefoot).  Students can, but are not required to have a balance beam.  Other objects that could be used are a long towel folded length-wise for them to stand on, or a 2x6 board sitting on the ground.  If the beam is higher than a couple of inches off the ground, the student will also need someone to spot them.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
