The Wood County Committee on Aging will be holding a “Matter of Balance” class at the Wood County Senior Center, 140 S. Grove St., Bowling Green, every Tuesday from March 4 to April 22 from 1 to 3 p.m.
This eight-week evidence-based course costs $20 and includes a manual for training purposes, weekly exercises to build strength and balance and a certificate upon completion of the course.
Are you experiencing a fear of falling? Are you limiting your activities due to this fear? Are you becoming physically weak? If you answered “yes” to any of these three questions, “A Matter of Balance” may be for you.
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.
