Movement is the key that unlocks the door to quality of life. While every person thinks differently, there is one thing everyone can agree on – they want quality of life. Everyone wants to feel good, stay independent, and live life to the fullest! To achieve quality of life, it is pertinent to prioritize health. More movement = better health. Simple as that.
Engaging in movement on a consistent basis:
- Maintains Strength
- Maintains Endurance
- Increases Balance
- Prevents Falls
- Reduces Pain
- Reduces Stiffness
- Reduces Injury Risk
- Increases Cognitive Function
- Prevents and Manages Chronic Conditions
As we age, movement becomes even more vital, yet research shows that daily movement lessens with age. Why is that?
Balance in Motion found two common barriers and sought to break through them!
Barrier #1: Lack of Know How
As we age, safely engaging in movement becomes more difficult. Bodies change, joints stiffen, and strength or balance may decline. What once felt simple can now feel intimidating — or even risky. Many older adults want to stay active but hesitate because:
- They’re afraid of falling or getting injured.
- They don’t know which exercises are safe or beneficial.
- They’ve had a bad experience with a generic fitness class or program not designed for their needs.
- They feel like traditional gyms aren’t for them.
Break through: At Balance in Motion, we provide a specialized, guided approach. All of our members receive personalized training from a skilled and professional therapist that specializes in aging. We focus on identifying the specific needs of our clients and create programs that safely promote independence and quality of life. With professional guidance, you can learn the right movements, build strength and balance safely, and regain confidence.
Barrier #2: Lack of Accountability and Social Support
Accountability keeps you consistent. It helps transform engaging in exercise from a “should” into a sustainable habit that helps you live life to the fullest! Equally, accountability builds confidence as you commit to and achieve goals. Lastly, accountability provides social connection. Knowing there are people expecting you, waiting for you to check in. It allows you to see that you’re not going at this alone – there are others that care about your success! Let’s move together!
Movement + Accountability = Independence
Break through: At Balance in Motion, we provide a structured program with built-in accountability and community. Regular sessions, friendly faces, and professional support create an environment where movement becomes a habit, not a chore.
No matter your goals or specific barriers, Balance in Motion provides a safe, personalized environment to help you routinely engage in movement.
