Free Adult (55+) Fall Prevention Classes

The Williamstown Council on Aging is offering free fall prevention classes for adults 55 and older this summer. Classes are led by ZenQuest Head Instructors Mark and Connie Flynn, who have developed a specialized program that adapts martial arts principles — including balance, coordination, strength, and controlled movement — into safe falling techniques for older adults of all abilities.

What you’ll gain:

  • Learn to fall safely
  • Reduce your falling risk
  • Increase your confidence

When: Thursdays, July 9 – August 13, 4:30–5:30 pm

Where: Williamstown Council on Aging

Cost: Free — but registration is required

To register, contact Sophie Carnes Jannen:
scarnesjannen@berkshireplanning.org
(413) 442-1521 x63

Sponsored by Berkshire Regional Planning Commission (BRPC) and Williamstown Council on Aging.
