Good balance reduces your risk of falls, a serious health threat to older adults. Exercises like pickleball are one of the best ways to improve your balance. 'These movements sharpen the connections between your body, brain and eyes. Over time, you develop better balance and coordination," Jim Edwards said. Jim Edwards said, 'The social aspect of the game is also important. People interact with each other, enhancing their quality of life.'
