The City of Middleton is offering the Stepping On Workshop, an evidence-based program aimed at preventing falls among older adults. The workshop will be held on Thursdays from September 18 to October 30, between 9:30 and 11:30 AM. Registration for the class closes once it begins.

According to the program organizers, "One in four people age 65 or older has a fall each year. Don’t be one of them! Learn to avoid dangerous and costly falls so that you can keep doing the activities you love to do." The workshop includes weekly sessions with experts covering various topics, strength and balance exercises, and a nutritious snack.

The cost for the seven-week course is $35, and participants must attend at least five classes to be eligible. Those interested are encouraged to register by calling 608-831-2373 before September 11.
