A seven-week “Stepping On” class will begin from 2-4 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 6 at the Church of St. Joseph Heritage Hall in St. Joseph.
The class will be instructed by Paula Woischke and Marjorie Henkemeyer.
“This seven-week class provides expert coaching on falls prevention and ways to increase physical activity to help prevent falls,” Henkemeyer said. “Coaching and instruction is provided by physical therapists, pharmacists, chiropractors, podiatrists, nurses and falls-prevention specialists.”
The class is designed to improve participants’ confidence, increase physical activity, and offer group support and expert coaching.
It’s also designed to reduce participants’ risk of falls, and individuals who are at risk of falling or have a fear of falling are encouraged to attend.
The fee for the class is a voluntary contribution.
