"This imaginative and easy-to-follow approach to improving one's balance and preventing falls can be of much value to you, your family, and to any older person."
T. Frank Willams, M.D., Former Director of The National Institute on Aging.
"This book is an informative and immensely practical guide for seniors to achieve better balance through fitness. Realistic goals of exercise are repeatedly stressed throughout the text. There is no claim here of developing senior Olympians, but rather an exercise program designed to avoid falls as well as an emphasis on the strong, positive social concequences of self-confidence induced by balance exercise."
William J. Hall, M.D., Director of the Center for Healthy Aging, University of Rochester
"Betty Perkins-Carpenter has come up with a great little book, filled with balancing exercises specifically geared to seniors. This book is different; it won't overwhelm you."
Nan Kathryn Fuchs, Ph.D., Editor, Women's Health Letter
"This is so easy and fun! There's so much I can do again without fear of falling."
