BRUNSWICK — Fear of falling can be debilitating to seniors, often leading to a decrease in activity that can result in physical weakness.
Mid Coast Senior Health Center will offer A Matter of Balance, a class to address these issues, on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, 10 a.m. to noon, Jan. 15 through February 7, at the Senior Health Center, 58 Baribeau Drive.
A Matter of Balance is a nationally recognized program led by trained facilitators that will teach the group to view falls as controllable.
The class is free but limited to 12 participants. Register by calling 373-4656.
