Dynamic Balance for Life is an innovative program developed for older adults to avoid a fall if possible, and to learn to land safely in the event of a fall!
Adelaide University Judo Club collaborated with Adelaide University's G-TRAC Centre, to do an ethics-approved Pilot Study in late 2021. The study showed that this Introductory program developed by Adelaide University Judo Club is safe and feasible for older adults. The results of the study were published in April 2023 in The Journal of Frailty and Ageing.
The Introductory program is delivered by experienced judo coaches who have been acredited in the course. Each session is 60 minutes, once per week. Each session is a combination of low intensity strength and balance work combined with learning to land safely from a fall and get up and down from the floor confidently.
Judo Australia, the peak body for judo in Australia, is a proud partner of Dynamic Balance!
