evidence-based results. Dress for the classes include loose, comfortable
outerwear, good fitting work-out footwear, water bottle, and a desire for fun in
fitness!
They consist of twelve one hour classes over twelve weeks with training
for out-of-class programs (Falls Program) that supplement the formal classes
and are carried out by the class participants in their own home environment at
their own pace and convenience.
The classes have four segments, warm-up, cardio, muscle strengthening,
and cool-down/stretches. Maintain and improve your quality of life and
independence. Improve mobility and active daily living tasks such as personal
grooming, sitting, standing, reaching, lifting, preventing falls, playing with the
grandchildren, and more. The class is conducted with chair assistance, or in a

coordination and other functional mobility issues are integral to the program.
