Many older adults experience a fear of falling. People who develop this fear often limit their activities, which can result in physical weakness, making the risk of falling even greater. A Matter of Balance is a program designed to reduce the fear of falling and increase activity levels among older adults.
Matter of Balance leader training will be hosted in Rochester later this year! Please respond or contact Family Service Rochester if you may be interested in attending the training session so you may teach older adults at future classes.
To remain a leader, you will be required to teach the course two (2) times within the first year of your training and one (1) time every year beyond your first. Each class needs to be co-led by two (2) trained leaders; we have a growing network of trained leaders for you to collaborate with in order to successfully deliver the program!
**At least 6 participant leaders will need to be signed up to hold this class. Training will be held on August 23rd. Additional details will be communicated when confirmed.
Thank you for your time, patience, and desire to provide this program to our community!
