***Feel free to skip to 11:15 in the video if you'd like to skip the beginning, where I ask the participants to introduce themselves and tell us about their concerns with falls, as well as any previous falls they've already had.

During this workshop, which I recorded on 61324, we detailed information to help people improve their balance and reduce the likelihood of having a fall.

Here are the main topics we covered:
The "downward spiral" of having a fall: how one fall can change the course of your life
The 3 steps to maintaining balance and preventing a fall
The "3 Balance Systems" you use to sense your balance
4 other key factors that affect your balance
A brief discussion of BPPV, the most common cause of vertigo
Our 2step approach to help people figure out the root cause(s) of their poor balance and how to select the best balance exercises and interventions

If you'd like to take a deep dive to learn more about your balance (and how to improve this), this should be an excellent resource!

I hope you enjoy it :)
