Expert Level Guidance
Build Coordination through Play
Progress Through Five Levels
- Every activity is designed with clear instructions, video demonstrations, and adaptable variations to suit your child’s needs. Created by James Dowton, Australian Paediatric Physiotherapist with over 10,000 hours of experience, this program is backed by expertise to help your child develop smoother, more coordinated movement.
Build Coordination through Play
- The program starts with engaging, play-based activities that match your child’s current abilities. Whether they’re learning to move with more control or refining their ability to react quickly and fluidly, every activity is carefully designed to build their coordination naturally and enjoyably.
Progress Through Five Levels
- Each level introduces new challenges that strengthen coordination, body control, and reaction speed at a pace that’s right for your child. From foundational skills to more complex, real-world movements, every step prepares them for greater confidence in play, sports, and daily life.
The Importance of Coordination
Whether they’re learning to catch, throw, or play sports, coordination helps your child develop smooth, controlled movements that grow with them.
Build a Strong Foundation for Confident Movement
When your child develops coordination, they gain better control over their movements, making everyday activities feel smoother and more natural. Whether they’re learning to catch, throw, or navigate their environment with ease, coordination helps them take on new challenges with confidence.
Strengthens the Brain and Body Connection
Every time your child moves, their brain is processing timing, sequencing, and spatial awareness. Activities that build coordination also enhance problem-solving, attention, and memory, supporting skills that go beyond movement and into learning and daily life.
Support Social Confidence and Participation
When movement feels natural and controlled, kids can engage in social play, team sports, and group activities. Whether it’s passing a ball, keeping up with friends in a game, or participating in class, strong coordination helps kids feel capable, included, and confident.
How the Program Works
The Balance Program is thoughtfully designed to make coordination-building simple, effective, and enjoyable for both you and your child. Here’s how it works:
