We can remain balanced and moving throughout our lifespan if we have intention and awareness. Join Judith Sachs, movement specialist and martial artist, to find out how! This workshop will offer innovative ways to sit, rise, stand, and move, as well as practice being out of balance, so that we know where our center of gravity is. Learn easy exercises for body, eyes, and breath to give you self-confidence in sitting, standing, walking, and recovery from falls.
