Class and Program Comments

“I wish there would be a class like Fall Stop…MOVE STRONG in every state, in every community throughout America”
—Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-MD)

“Thanks for all your good work. I have had many opportunities to fall and did not. [Celeste], you certainly do look like you enjoy teaching, which, in itself, is so helpful to the class.” —Elaine K

“Getting stronger…did not feel stiff when getting up from movies…Feel a little more secure on steps and a bit less fearful…Facilitator is wonderful…” —Anne R

“Loved the class…I felt it was helpful and positive!” —Paula

“Clearly better balance and more assurance…feel better about my body…” —Marylyn

“I am much more confident about walking in general. I found my joints and legs are much more limber and flexible. I have more energy in general and my posture has improved, since I am more aware of my body…I walk naturally and faster and I breather better…I feel more energetic and happier in spite of my medical condition…” —Evelyn B

“Posture better (when I remind myself)…A little more confidence. I take 2 buses to get here instead of car service when I began…” —Ruth M

“… [Celeste's] thoughtfulness shows in everything you do…Comments such as "She's good", She's very good" by members of the group before and after class are exchanged among ourselves. You're an excellent teacher…I used your guidance in getting in and out of a taxi; it worked…I can get up confidently if I should fall…I walk confidently knowing if I should fall I can get up” —Phyllis W

“Can't wait to get to the class! It's doing everything to help. I have more confidence here than anywhere I go during the week. I'm walking and getting back my old life. You girls really know and understand old people.” —Natalie (86 years old)

“I am not afraid I'll fall down when a strong wind blows, and I feel more relaxed walking and in general. I know I'm stronger. Thank you for helping us!!” —Gwen (82 years old)

“Prior to taking the class I deteriorated physically. Since then I seem to have maintained the same level and even improved in some areas…I know the best way to get up after a fall…my balance in general seems to have improved…I appreciate…that Celeste lets me participate at my own pace…” —Eric K (age 95)

“I am holding my body more erect (when I think about it)…I am more aware of my core…I am more attentive to how I use my feet and ankles…I am somewhat less fearful of walking outside the house…” —Cynthia F
