Description

Join us for exercises for better balance, and to maintain independence, as well as prevent falls! This Level 2 class is for those who have previously take Better Balance classes, as well as those who have good balance and are working to maintain that. This class moves at a quicker pace than the Level 1, and will offer progressively challenging exercises as we move through the session. The primary focus will be on strengthening the core and maintaining core strength to maintain and improve balance. We will also do exercises to strengthen the pelvis, legs, knees, and the lower, mid and upper back to improve posture. Each session also incudes a class focused on helping to prevent falls, as well as strategies to help you get back up, in case you do fall. Please note that a good portion of each class includes standing exercises and walking exercises.
