Wellness Workshop DescriptionSchedule This Workshop

Balance – it’s the ability to remain steady and maintain the body in a state of equilibrium.  Balance helps you stand, walk, and move without falling.  It’s what allows you to confidently climb stairs without holding on to a railing or walk on uneven surfaces like sand. Balance is an important part of functional fitness, but it’s often a skill that many people overlook and is therefore underdeveloped or will eventually begin to decline over time.

There are many factors that can lead to the decline of balance as we age.  Impaired vision, the effects of certain medications, muscle atrophy, and more, can affect proper balance and lead to falls and injury.  In fact, one in every three adults aged 65 and older fall each year.¹ People who have suffered a fall are 2 to 3 times more likely to fall again. ¹ And 1 out of every 5 falls results in a serious injury such as a broken bone or head injury.²

The good news is that it’s not too late to start making changes that can lead to improvements in balance and posture. Curves’ 6 Weeks to Better Balance and Posture class will take you through guided exercises geared to help you improve your balance.  There is a different focus each week, ranging from posture and center of gravity, to core strength, proprioception and equilibrium.

The Curves’ 6 Weeks to Better Balance and Posture is a self-paced class that you can do from the comfort of your own home.  Then once a week, you’ll meet with your Curves Coach at your local club to review what you have learned, demonstrate the exercise skills you’ve mastered, and help answer any questions you have. Your coach will become a trusted, valuable partner in helping you develop valuable health and fitness skills so that you can live a healthier, more rewarding life.
