***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 6-13-24, 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 2-step 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 :-)
