How do you balance yourself on the bench when both of your feet are moving? How do you get leverage to keep your balance?

@TVWriterGuy
Good question. Most of an organists weight is over the bench so usually no danger of falling into the keys.

Do you play #3? It's very easy, but it's my favorite organ piece that's still not posted on you tube.
