The Wood County Committee on Aging will be holding a “Matter of Balance” course at the Wood County Senior Center, 140 S. Grove St., Bowling Green, every Tuesday from Sept. 10 to Oct. 29, from 1 to 3 p.m.
This eight-week evidence-based course costs $20 and includes a manual for training purposes and a certificate upon completion of the course.
The “Matter of Balance” course is intended for people who experience a fear of falling, who limit activities due to this fear, or who are becoming physically weak. During this class participants will learn to view falls as controllable, set goals for increasing activity, make changes to reduce fall risk at home, and exercise to increase strength and balance.
