In short, you can't. Not completely anyway. The only way to do it is to train your left side to do everything that the right side does. That will take a lot of repetition to build up muscle memory.

People differ in handedness, both in which side is dominant and how dominant it is. The extent of dominance might be changeable, but the dominant side will probably stay the same.

What may help is to explore the skills that the non dominant side uses. (ok, this is a little backwards because the left side of the brain controls the right side of the body) It may help train that side to do more. Then again, it might only make you a more well rounded person. Who knows?

most people are born ambidextrous, but its very possible to become so. start writing with your left hand. nothing important - things like shopping lists, your signature, whatever you want, as long as its with your left hand. play catch with a tennis ball, using the wall, and only your left hand to catch and throw the ball. the most difficult part about that is not using your right hand, as this will be your first instinct.

You are either born with it or u start practicing using ur other hand. Its very possible to be able to become ambidextrous even if u arent born like that.

practice, but you'll never be perfect.

just start doing things you normally do right-handed with your left. writing's the big one, once you can write with either hand (and it's not easy to do it WELL), you could probably consider yourself ambidextrous or at least close

all it require is will power and drive. you have to force yourself to do everything with the other hand. after that gets a bit comfortable, start using both again. make your right hand do the same as the left in writing exercices
