Missed the analysis of the home environment for #FallPrevention by an #OT / #OccupationalTherapist.
(These folk are in my experience top of the game for establishing an effective working relationship with their clients. Other health profession educators would do well to watch and learn and then introduce OT's methods into their trainings. Though some educators might need to see an osteopath/chiropractor/manipulating physiotherapist to get their nose reset after reading that.)
📣Rockstar Member Spotlight! Let's give a shout-out to Jim from my SPARTA Strength Class at the Malden Senior Center!
👟For two years, Jim has been a regular in class, and a valued member of our community, demonstrating incredible dedication and progress.
Keep up the amazing work, Jim! 💪🏾
It’s never too late to get active! ✨

Are you worried about falling or worry about a parent, partner, or friend who has had recent falls? It seems rather unfair, but increased worry about falls actually increases our fall risk! Thankfully you can reduce that risk by growing mindfulness, adding simple movement practices, and making safer choices in your home & community.
February 12th is the beginning of the next series of my 5-week fall prevention program, Mindful Fall Prevention. Sessions are 90 minutes from 1-2:30pm, Pacific time. This program is offered through the Lifelong Learning program of Portland Parks and Recreation. This low-cost workshop is open to both Portland, Oregon, residents ($10) and non-residents ($14).

Are you or someone you care about worried about falling?
Fall prevention for older adults is vitally important because we’re more likely to be injured in a fall when we’re older. There are many simple changes people can make to reduce the risk of a fall.
I offer a 5-week course called Build Better Balance that explores prevention from several different approaches. Each week I introduce new movement and mindfulness practices and we cover a safety topic. Since it’s online people can sign up from anywhere! Sessions are recorded in case you can’t make all 5 sessions.
Cost for the full program is $10 for residents in the Portland metro area, only $14 for nonresidents! We meet for 90 minutes with a short break. Classes start at 1pm Pacific time.
Sign up today through Portland Parks & Recreation’s Lifelong Learning program to join one of the two summer sessions:
June 26-July 24: https://anc.apm.activecommunities.com/portlandparks/activity/search/detail/167368?onlineSiteId=0&from_original_cui=true
