Unit 3: SilverSneakers Stability Class Design

Stability is a standing, drills and skills class with a seated stretch and relaxation segment. A chair is utilized for support while standing in the class and seated support for the stretch and relaxation. This format can be taught effectively with no equipment. The station option incorporates the use of props and equipment. Since Stability can be taught equipment free, it may be a great addition to FLEX class locations.

Key topics include:

  • Five-segment format
  • Training for functional improvement
  • Risk versus benefit exercise selection
