A fear of falling can keep you from living your life to the fullest. The good news is that falls can be predictable and preventable. Our eight-session group class will teach you strategies to reduce falling risks, increase activity and live your life again. You’ll also learn home modifications to make falls less likely and practice exercises to increase strength and balance.
