A Matter of Balance workshop includes eight two-hour sessions led by trained facilitators. A Matter of Balance program emphasizes practical strategies to reduce the fear of falling and increase activity levels for adults who:

• Have a fear of falling or have fallen in the past
• Restrict activities because of a concern about falling
• Are interested in improving flexibility and increasing activity level
• Are 60 or older, ambulatory and able to problem solve

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.”
