How Foam Improves Balance Training
All 6 directions
Unlike traditional balance boards with rigid bases, our durable high-density PU foam base allows resistive movement in all 6 degrees of freedom — three rotational and three translational.
This full-range instability engages core stabilizers, sharpens control, and better reflects how the body maintains balance in real-world situations.
Strong energy return
When loaded, the foam compresses and stores energy, which is released as dynamic movement whenever the body makes small, uncontrolled shifts. This produces strong reactive movement — similar to slacklining, but more accessible — that demands continuous stabilization in all directions.
The movement is comparable to balancing on an air cushion or an inverted BOSU®, but with more responsive energy return and a more engaging ride.
MODULAR DESIGN
One Board, Three Intensities
Adjust the challenge to your level or training goal by changing foam height and quantity. First, choose the right amount of foam for your body weight, then select your intensity by choosing foam height.

Maximum dynamic response
Stacked configuration. Maximum energy return.
You’re never locked into one level. Progress over time, fine-tune the difficulty, or quickly adjust for different exercises.
Choose the right amount of foam
Two foam sizes: Base foam (L) and add-on foam (S) cover a body-weight range of approximately 50–170 kg. Simply add or remove S foam pieces, and use the insert in the L block for fine-tuning.
The exact weight range for each foam configuration is shown in the foam selection dropdown at the top of the page.
Choose Your Surface
Choose between two board surfaces to match the feel under your feet:
Laser-engraved wood surface
Natural feel with moderate grip, allowing easier foot turning. Suitable for most shoes and barefoot use — ideal for personal use.
Rubber surface
Maximum grip and control. Best for shared environments — gyms, studios, and group settings where consistent traction is needed.
Built for training, rehabilitation, active office use, and everyday movement.

“The foam creates a completely different stimulus compared with other balance boards. It responds to even the smallest imperfections in your movement, making it a great tool for training balance, stability and movement control.”
Miha Škof
Creator of the Balansa Foam Board
Active office use · 3 years
“A standing desk wasn’t enough — my body wanted to keep moving, not just stand. While developing the Balansa Foam Board, I discovered that using it at my standing desk completely changed how I feel during long hours at the computer. It feels liberating for both body and mind. With the highest foam setting, I can naturally lean on my desk while using the mouse or typing, staying active without excessive movement. I’m grateful to have the Foam Board as part of my daily routine!”
