Description

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 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.

Need an accommodation? We will make reasonable modifications and accommodations to ensure that people with disabilities have equal opportunity to participate in all classes and events. If you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to participate fully in a class or event, please notify us at (207) 872-4102 at least 48 hours prior to the start of the class or event.
