MOVE STEADY - FALL SAFELY - AGE WELL

AgeWell Motion

At AgeWell Motion, we bring together the latest research and practical strategies to help you stay steady & safe on your feet.

We specialize in teaching Safe Falling Techniques specifically designed for older adults to minimize the risk of injury from falls. Our innovative, evidence-based program – Dynamic Balance for LifeTM (DBfL) – is based on modified judo safe falling techniques. It has been rigorously tested & evaluated by the University of Adelaide in partnership with the Adelaide University Judo Club (AUJC) to ensure it is safe and feasible for older adults as old as 87 years. DBfL focuses on teaching how to fall safely in 3 different directions (forwards, sideways, backwards) to minimize the risk of injury, while also improving balance recovery and floor transfers.

Our Mission

We empower older adults with the knowledge and skills to reduce harm from falling, move confidently, and maintain independence as they age.
