WHY
Poor balance often leads to falls which can lead to serious health complications and threaten independence. Balance training can significantly reduce the risk of falls in all age groups. Falls Can Be Serious. Falls are a major health issue in the community with around 30% of adults over 65 experiencing at least one fall per year and in adults over 80 years old, half will fall in the course of a year with many never recovering from their fall. This puts an enormous strain on themselves, their family and society. What often follows a fall is loss of confidence in walking, general activities and socialising. Once mobility and independence have gone, admission to care facilities or institutions is inevitable. There are many reasons for diminishing balance, poor sleep, some medications, stress, fear, muscle weakness, lack of agility, vision problems, trip hazards in and around the home and general lack of activity.
WHAT
The Balance Course is designed to help you improve your balance and agility with a series of easy to navigate walking exercises.
These walking challenges help increase your balance, coordination, agility and hip and foot strength.
The Balance Course has been created for all ages and abilities.
You are never too old to improve your balance.
Balance training involves doing exercises that strengthen the muscles that help keep you upright, including your legs and core. These kinds of exercises can improve stability and help prevent falls, injuries and help you regain and keep your mobility and independence.
HOW
All of the challenges on a Best Program Balance Course have been designed by a specialist in Functional Ageing, Balance Training, Tai Chi and Brain Health Training. The course has been trialled across a wide range of ages and abilities and has shown to be highly effective in improving balance in a short period of time. Start with the easiest walking challenge and progress through the course at your pace.
All you need is non slip shoes and a positive attitude.
Try to complete the Balance Course a couple of times on each visit.
