Do you have concerns about falling?
Attend a 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
• Set goals for increasing activity
• Make changes to reduce fall risks Participants also learn and practice exercises to help with balance
Here is what past participants are saying about Matter of Balance:
“I am already noticing a difference in my physical being. I plan to continue these exercises. Hopefully I’ll be jumping over the moon soon!”
“ I seem to be more aware of every situation for my safety. I now “stop, look and listen” to my surroundings.”
“This class is just what I needed. The Matter of Balance class has been life changing for me.”
