Another exercise that can help improve balance and lower the risk of falls is a form of gentle movement training called tai chi. Tai chi may improve balance and make you more stable and less likely to fall.
Look for group classes at local fitness centers or senior centers. Or rent or buy videos or books about tai chi. But keep in mind that it's easier to make sure you're doing the movements right when you learn from a teacher who gives you feedback.
