**Partner Balances**

- Involve partners supporting each other to maintain a stable position. One partner acts as a base, while the other creates a balance on top or alongside (the flyer).

**Counterbalances**

- Both partners use their weight against each other, they must push or pull with equal force to stay balanced.

See our partner balances resource which contains two partner balances and two counterbalances.

Each partner must contribute to the balance or counterbalance to ensure success.

Teaching your pupils partner balances and counterbalances helps them develop essential physical skills and fosters collaboration, creativity, and resilience, making them a valuable part of the gymnastics PE curriculum.
