Gentle Strength and Balance Class at MaltWorks Village Hall

The Gentle Strength and Balance Class offers exercises to build strength and balance for older New Zealanders. It suits those with limited to reasonable mobility, including people who use walking aids or walk unassisted. You will do exercises seated, standing, and walking in this supportive class held at MaltWorks Village Hall in Heathcote Valley, Christchurch. Members often notice better confidence, strength, and stability after joining.

These classes help reduce fall risk by improving balance and coordination. They also maintain independence through functional strength training and improve posture to ease aches and pains. Regular sessions boost confidence in daily activities and create social connections in a community setting. Research shows strength and balance exercises can cut fall risks by up to 30% for older adults.
