Healthy Steps In Motion
This fall prevention program is designed by the PA Department of Aging and is instructed by certified instructors.
This program meets twice a week for four (4) weeks and is designed for adults 60 years of age and older of all fitness levels.
Healthy Steps in Motion (HSIM) starts with a warm-up followed by strength and balance exercises and ends with a cool-down stretch.
HSIM strives to reduce the risk of falling by:
- Building body strength
- Increasing flexibility
- Improving balance
There are levels of exercises that enable participants to continue the class after four weeks.
