Abstract
This study investigates the impact of targeted coordination exercises on balance regulation in children between the ages of 3 and 7. A group of 136 children received weekly two-hour coordination training over three years, focusing on skills such as balance and spatial orientation. Their postural control was compared with a control group of 86 children who did not receive targeted training. Using the Leonardo Mechanograph® GRFP LT force plate system, balance was assessed through linear and nonlinear analyses. The results showed significant improvements in balance regulation in the experimental-intervention group, with better stability and fewer fluctuations (p<0.01). These findings highlight the importance of early coordination training in enhancing motor skills and preventing postural issues. Early intervention through targeted coordination programs is crucial for supporting motor development and overall health in preschool children.
