Introduction: Even postural asymmetry may provoke static and balance disorders.

Aim of the research: To define the level of dynamic balance among children aged 10–12 and find the correlations between poor postures.

Material and methods: This study was conducted among 176 children from Masłów district in Świętokrzyskie province. The Libra platform was used to examine the dynamic balance.

Results: Dynamic balance parameters from the sagittal and frontal plane show statistically significant differences between the control group and study groups.

Conclusions: The analysis of dynamic balance parameters from the sagittal and frontal plane confirms that the lowest values occur in the control group, higher in children with foot defect, and the highest in children with scoliotic posture.
