الملخص EN

The research aims to verify the effectiveness of a training program in developing the skills of static and dynamic balance among a sample of Down syndrome children in Damascus.

To achieve this goal, the researcher used the semi-experimental method.

The study sample consisted of (12) Down syndrome children aged between (4-6) years, and they were divided into an experimental group consisting of (6) children and a control group of (6) children.

To assess their ability to balance the sub-scale (Static and Dynamic Balance Scale) from the M-ABC Battery was used.

The children of the experimental group underwent a training program prepared by the researcher to develop their static and dynamic balance skills at a rate of two training sessions per week of 30 minutes each and for a period of two months.

The results showed that there are statistically significant differences between the average scores of the children of the experimental group and those of the control group on the static and dynamic balance scale after applying for the training program in favor of the children of the experimental group.

In addition, there is also the presence of statistically significant differences between the average scores of the children of the experimental group on the static and dynamic balance scale.

In the pre and post applications in favor of post-application, the results also showed no statistically significant differences between the mean scores of the experimental group children in the post-application and their average scores in the postponed post-application on the static and dynamic balance scale.
