Many older adults experience concerns about falling & restrict their activities. Falls are preventable! A MATTER OF BALANCE program is a FREE Evidence Based Program for 60+ designed to reduce falls & increase activity levels. The program consists of 2 hour classes, twice a week (Mondays & Wednesdays) for 4 weeks.
All participants must attend the first session on August 7th and be willing to attend the next 6 - 7 classes. Workbooks will be provided. This program explores the concerns & causes of falls and provides practical strategies on how to prevent falls. In the third class, we will have 45 minutes of light chair assisted exercises to increase balance & reduce falls.

YOU WILL LEARN TO:
• view falls as controllable
• set goals for increasing activity
• make changes to reduce fall risks at home
• exercise to increase strength
and balance

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
