Fall Prevention Exercise Class | Waipukurau

Fall Prevention Exercise Class in Waipukurau

This class offers a free weekly programme to build muscle strength, improve balance, and help prevent falls. It's geared towards older adults with limited to reasonable mobility, so it's a good fit if you use a walking aid or walk on your own with average strength and balance. You'll enjoy gentle seated warm-ups, standing exercises with chair support if needed, and cool-downs, all following the Otago Exercise Programme.

Classes take place at St Mary's Anglican Church in Waipukurau, Hawke's Bay, in a supportive group setting where you can connect with others from the community. The social side helps build friendships while you work on your wellness together. Ankle weights are on hand for extra challenge as you get stronger. It's a great way to stay active and keep your independence.
