Anti Slip Wooden Balance Board - Ankle Stretcher for Ballet and Fitness Training, Home Gym Stability Exercise Equipment

Stronger ankles and steadier balance, in a few minutes a day

Step onto the board, set the angle, and give your calves, Achilles and ankles a deep, steady stretch while your balance gets to work. A few minutes a day is all it asks, and it lives by the sofa, the barre or the desk ready for the next session.

It is a wooden rocker board with an anti-slip pad for bare feet: a flat layered-plywood board with a grippy black pad across the middle, a rounded rail underneath, and loose wooden riser bars that tip one end up. It is the ankle stretcher for ballet warm-ups, fitness routines and stability work at home.

You choose the angle

The riser bars are the whole mechanism. Each is a length of the same wood with a rounded top and a flat bottom, faced with the same grippy material. Slide one under an end of the board and that end lifts; your foot rests on the slope it makes.

Set it toes-up to stretch the back of the calf and the Achilles. Turn the board around and lift the other end for a toes-down position. Two bar lengths give you two different slopes, so the same board suits a gentle warm-up and a deeper stretch.

An anti-slip pad that keeps your bare foot planted

The black pad is a finely textured anti-slip surface made for a bare foot, so your foot stays exactly where you put it from the first stretch to the last balance drill. The riser bars carry the same grippy facing on their top edge.

Set the board on carpet or a grippy exercise mat and it stays put under you while you work.

Start seated, then stand when you feel ready

Sitting on a chair with the board on the floor in front of you gives you the same calf and ankle position with all of the comfort and none of the balance demand. It is the easiest way to feel how the angle works before you put your weight on it, and a great spot for a stretch during the working day.

Stand tall with a hand on the wall

When you stand on it, the tilt turns every stretch into balance practice. A simple setup makes it comfortable from the first session:

• Set it up within arm's reach of a wall, a counter or a sturdy chair back and rest a hand there while you find your balance.
• Give yourself a clear patch of floor, carpet or a grippy mat to work on.
• Go barefoot or in grippy socks so the pad can do its job.
• Seat the riser bar firmly, step on deliberately, and begin at the shallowest angle.
• Stretch to the point of a good pull, then ease off.
• Slide it under the bed or into a closet between sessions.

Made for ballet, fitness and everyday stability work

Dancers use the toes-up and toes-down angles to warm up calves and ankles before class. Runners and lifters use them before a session. Anyone who spends the day on their feet or at a desk can use the seated position for a reset. And the standing position gives your ankles and balance a small, steady workout at home.
