In “A Matter of
Balance,” an eight-week series of workshops returning to the Asheboro Public
Library from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. Tuesdays beginning May 7, participants will learn
to view falls and fear of falling as controllable, and will develop the ability
to set realistic goals to increase activity, change their environment to reduce
fall risk factors, and exercise to increase strength and balance.
The course is free, but
space is limited; visit the Reference Desk or call 336-318-6803 to sign up.
Each class builds on the
previous classes to emphasize practical strategies to reduce fear of falling
and increase activity levels.
Offered in conjunction
with the Piedmont Triad Regional Council Area Agency on Aging, the
nationally-recognized program was developed at the Roybal Center for Active
Lifestyle Interventions at Boston University.
The library is located
at 201 Worth Street.
