If you have fallen in the past or restrict your activities because you are afraid of falling, register for RiverView Health’s free series of balance classes starting in September. “A Matter of Balance’’ is a program helping participants improve balance, flexibility, and strength. Classes will be held each Wednesday for eight weeks, Sept. 11-Oct. 30, from 9-11 am, at the Golden Link Senior Center, 324 N. Main Street, Crookston.
Participants will learn to:
