Many seniors experience fear of falling and restrict their activities. A Matter of Balance: Managing Concerns About Falls emphasizes practical strategies to reduce this fear and increase activity levels. Participants learn to view falls and fear of falling as controllable; set realistic goals to increase activity; change their environment to reduce fall risk factors; and exercise to increase strength and balance.
A Matter of Balance includes eight two-hour sessions for a small group led by two trained facilitators. This program was developed at the Roybal Center at Boston University, and has been nationally recognized.
Call Southeast Seattle Senior Center at 206-722-0317 to register now. Space is limited, so register early.
