Description:   A Matter of Balance is designed to reduce the fear of falling and increase activity levels among older adults.

During the class, participants learn to: 1) View falls as controllable, 2) set goals for increasing activity, 3) make changes to reduce fall risk at home, and 4) exercise to increase strength and balance.

Dates:   8 sessions – 2 x week – Mondays and Wednesdays – April 2, 4, 9, 11, 16, 18, 23 and 25, 2018
