Do you have concerns about falling?
Attend an In Person or Virtual Workshop for help!
Many older adults experience concerns about falling and may restrict their activities because of these fears. MATTER OF BALANCE is an 8-session workshop designed to improve balance, flexibility, and strength, helping people reduce fall risks, strengthen their confidence, and become more active.
In an educational support-group style, MATTER OF BALANCE helps people to:
- View falls and fear of falling as controllable.
- Exercise to improve balance, flexibility, and strength.
- Set goals for increasing physical activity.
- Make changes to reduce fall risk.
