Join us for A Matter of Balance, a four-week class focusing on fall prevention and management, running from April 30 through May 22 every Thursday and Friday, 10:00am-12:00pm. This class requires pre-registration, which you can do by calling 207-396-6578, or visiting smaaa.org/events.html.

Southern Maine Agency on Aging’s A Matter of Balance program provides an in-depth look at falls prevention and management. In 8 sessions over 4 weeks, you will learn to view falls as something you can control so you can stay active and independent.

Other notable benefits from the class include:

• Discuss fall prevention with fellow participants in a safe and comforting environment
• Set goals and increase your activity level to improve your strength and balance
• Make changes around the home to reduce the risks of falling
• Become a proactive self-manager in improving your quality of life

A Matter of Balance series is sponsored by Maine Medical Center MaineHealth.
