LEWISTON — SeniorsPlus, in partnership with Healthy Living for ME, plans to offer a free workshop to help individuals prevent falls and improve strength.

A Matter of Balance is scheduled for Tuesday, May 3, to Thursday, May 26. Participants will meet from 10 a.m. to noon Tuesdays and Thursdays, at the Education Center, at SeniorsPlus’ Lewiston office on 8 Falcon Road.

The free class emphasizes practical strategies to reduce fear of falling and increase activity levels, according to a SeniorsPlus news release.

Participants learn to view falls and fear of falling as controllable, set realistic goals to increase activity, change their environment to reduce fall risk factors, and exercise to increase strength and balance.
