Who should join a balance class?

Any resident who wants to stay steady and independent, from active adults to those who have already had a fall.

Can you report on outcomes?

A mix of standing balance drills, lower-body strength and tai chi is most effective. Orion's balance and fall prevention classes combine these into safe, progressive sessions.
