Strength and balance classes at PhysioPoint

A supportive way to stay active, meet new people and build confidence.

By attending our regular exercise classes, you can increase your physical activity while meeting new people in a friendly and supportive environment.

Our strength and balance classes are designed for people who want to stay flexible and improve their strength, balance and overall confidence. The gym-based programme is individually tailored by a physiotherapist with more than 15 years of experience working in older adult rehabilitation within the NHS.

Physiotherapist-led programme

Every exercise is selected around your ability, goals and day-to-day needs.

What the class includes

Practical exercises for strength, balance and everyday movement.

The exercises may feel challenging at first, but confidence grows with regular practice. Sessions can include pushing and pulling weights, climbing stairs, improving balance and practising movements that support everyday activities.

Improved strength and balance can help you approach daily tasks with greater confidence and independence.
Your physiotherapist will explain each exercise, answer questions and adjust the programme whenever an activity needs to be made easier, safer or more suitable.

Everyone works at their own level

Different abilities are welcomed. What matters is taking part, asking questions and working to the best of your ability.

Your comfort comes first

Exercises can be adapted whenever you need.

You can ask questions throughout the class. If an exercise causes pain or discomfort, speak to your physiotherapist. They can provide an alternative exercise so you can continue working towards your goals without placing unnecessary strain on the affected joint.

Pain or discomfort during a particular exercise

A recent injury, illness or change in your health

03

Any change in your walking, balance or confidence

04

Concerns about an exercise, weight or piece of equipment
