Fit & Fall Proof Classes for Seniors

Fit & Fall Proof Classes Helps Seniors Reduce the Risk of Falling The "Fit and Fall Proof" fitness program is designed to help senior citizens prevent injury and the subsequent loss of independence. Class participants learn simple exercises to increase strength, balance and endurance, which can help prevent the accidental falls and tripping sometimes associated with age.

One-in-three people over the age of 65 fall each year. Fear of falling can keep seniors from doing activities they enjoy. An active lifestyle can reduce the risk of falling.
