Volunteers lead an 8-week class series called "A Matter of Balance." The classes are geared for people at risk of falling, people who are fearful of falling, and people who are starting to limit their daily activities because of fear of falling.
Volunteers also lead a weekly weight-bearing exercise class called "BoneSaver Exercise Program." These classes are hour-long gentle routines that provide strength training, and improve balance and flexibility. Volunteer leaders have been trained to lead these classes.
