Gentle Balance and Strength Class in North East Valley

In a typical Steady As You Go session, you'll join a friendly group for an hour of gentle exercises. These include seated, standing, and walking activities led by trained Peer Leaders. The class draws from a physiotherapy-based programme designed for older adults with limited mobility, like those using a walking aid or feeling unsure about balance.

At Valley Baptist Community Centre in North East Valley, Dunedin, you'll build strength and balance to help prevent falls and stay independent. It suits older adults over 65, or anyone at risk of falling, recovering from illness, surgery, or injury. Participants often notice better stability, improved posture awareness, and stronger social connections after a few weeks.
