Bosu Balls - Martial Arts Balance Training

The Bosu ball is another piece of sports equipment that is used to improve martial arts balance skills. The Bosu ball is a flexible rubber hemisphere attached to a hard plastic bottom. In order to create different types of exercises, the Bosu ball can be used either with the flat hard bottom on the ground or the flexible rubber half on the ground.

Like a balance board, the inherent instability of this device allows the Bosu ball to be used for a variety of balance exercises. All stretches and exercises should be supervised by a trained instructor in order to prevent injuries and to ensure the proper technique is utilized.
