Have you turned down a chance to go out with family or friends because you were concerned about falling? If so, this course is for you. Registration is closed.

A Matter of Balance can help people improve their quality of life and remain independent. It is designed to reduce the fear of falling and increase activity levels among older adults. Participants will learn to set realistic goals to increase activity, change their environment to reduce fall risk factors, and increase their strength and balance using simple exercises.

Eight sessions are designed to help adults in their late 50s and older improve their balance and become more confident about managing falls. This series is presented by Our Lady of the Lake Ascension.

Registration is closed.
