Development of dynamic balance started at age 7 to 8 years.

Results of Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test found a significant difference with p=0.001 (p<0.05) in Group I and Group II. Different test difference with Mann Whitney U-Test showed a significant difference between Group I and Group II where p=0.001 (p<0.05), the conclusion is brain gym in core stability exercise is more effective in increasing the dynamic balance among children 7 to 8 years old in PPA Tunas Kasih Abianbase than core stability exercise only.
