Balance is the ability to react to any change in body position so that the body remains stable and in control. A right balance will enable a person to carry out activities and movements effectively and efficiently with minimal risk of falling. A balanced training program is given as many athletes get injured during peak periods and training for patients with Multiple Sclerosis and Down Syndrome. The author is interested in proving and implementing various forms of balance training applied to children who participate in various sports at primary school age to prevent them from avoiding injury. Therefore, all physical conditions must be met so that they are ready to receive training at the next stage. This study aims to determine the effect of learning static and dynamic balance in elementary school students. The method used is a pretest-posttest control group design experimental random sampling method. The sample is elementary school students in grades 5 and 6. The instruments used in the form of tests are the standing crane test and the Star Balance Excursion Balance Test (SEBT). The results showed that static and dynamic balance learning significantly influenced the improvement of balance in elementary school students. In conclusion, learning static and dynamic balance together provides increased balance in elementary school students. © 2020 by authors, all rights reserved.
