South Sacramento fall risk reduction class

Some of you may be aware that I recently graduated from Sac State with a Special Master of Science in Therapeutic Aging. Like most (post-bachelor) graduates, I am seeking full-time employment (aka, a career position) with a company, a career that offers full benefits and the room for growth. Excuse me but like most American citizens, I find the list of job opportunities that offer a competitive salary and full-time benefits to be discouraging to say the least.

As an independent contractor, I presented a proposal for a 4-week fall prevention exercise class to the committee members at Parkside Community church and the response was a UNANIMOUS YES! Located in South Sacramento, Parkside is very active church that offers classes to the entire community. Becky Anton, the parish nurse, is currently doing the "Walk to Jerusalem" health promotion program and the parishioners are doing great.

Lifestyle changes take time. I tell my clients that Rome wasn't built in a day so don't expect your body to change instantly. Afterall, those extra pounds didn't there overnight so don't expect them to disappear in one week. By sticking with a well-rounded balance and mobility program, your body will adapt to the demands. The key is to safely challenge yourself....consistently. I am just the person to show you how to do that!
