“A Matter of Balance” (AMoB), a series co-sponsored by the Schulenburg Public Library, Fayette County Committee on Aging, and Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service of Fayette County, will be held starting on Tuesday, Feb. 6.
AMoB will consist of eight two-hour sessions conducted each Tuesday and Thursday from 2 to 4 p.m. through Feb. 29 in the Schulenburg Public Library meeting room, 310 Simpson St.
The AMoB program emphasizes practical strategies to reduce fear of falling and increase activity level. Participants will 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.
