I just realized that there are a bunch of postings on this very topic on the next page -- sorry about that! The suggestions were helpful, but mostly come down to what I should have expected, I guess... basically, practice! The funny thing is, though, for some reason I trust that I can build strength and everything else with practice, but I think I feel a little hopeless about my balance. Not that it's that terrible. I can stand on one foot, just standing still, O.K., but what kills me is those crane stances in the Rohai kata, where you are basically turning on a 90 or 45 degree angle and then quickly trying to hit the crane stance without continuing to spin so that you fall over. But I guess if more practice is the answer for everything else, it is probably the answer for this, too! :lol:

Well a suggestion is practice...but I dont usually tell people to practice not even my students. I tell them to visualize themselves in the Tsuru Dachi, and it actually helps them, but if you dont like visualizing, just do the two previous steps before the crane stance and the two steps after the crane stance...(incorporating the crane stance of course)., this should help, it helps me alot when ever I need to focus on one certain thing.
