Matter of Balance (MOB)

Matter of Balance is an eight-session class that meets for two hours each session. The class is designed to reduce the fear of falling and increase the activity levels of older adults who have concerns about falls.

Participants learn to:

– View falls and fear of falling as controllable
– Set realistic goals for increasing activity
– Change their environment to reduce fall risk factors
– Promote exercise to increase strength and balance
– Falls are common, predictable, and preventable; they are not a natural part of aging!
