Description
A Matter of Balance is an award-winning, evidence-based group program that emphasizes practical strategies to reduce the fear of falling and increase activity levels. Participants meet in small groups in community settings for 8 sessions, where they learn to view falls as controllable, set realistic goals, change their environment to reduce risk factors, and exercise to increase strength and balance.
A Matter of Balance is free and offered to the community through support from the Council on Aging of Southwestern Ohio and led by experienced, certified instructors. A Matter of Balance can help if:
- A person is age 60 or older
- A person has fallen in the past
- A person doesn't do some things they enjoy because they fear falling
- A person would like to be more flexible, stronger, and have better balance
