Fallproof balance and mobility program
|
Falls are the leading cause of injury-related death for adults over age 65. Even non-fatal falls can hamper mobility that deteriorates to a loss of independence. FallProof™ is an evidence-based program developed by the California State University, Fullerton and the Center for Successful Aging to address risk factors for falls and reduce the fear of falling. This 8 week program involves informative lecture, testing for balance impairment, and exercises led by two Fallproof certified instructors. Each student works at their own level and is assessed to measure progress. At the conclusion of the program, participants will have the confidence to increase their level of activity and the knowledge to continue along the path of healthy movement.
ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR Bobbi Koonse is a certified Balance and Mobility Specialist and received training at the Center for Successful Aging, Cal State Fullerton. Bobbi has a black belt in Karate and also teaches Tai Chi and Balancefit. Bobbi is available for private balance assessments which are free and open to the community. Connect with Bobbi: CLICK HERE |
