Falling for Judo - Falls prevention and injury reduction

Introduction

This is the recording of a webinar held as part of the Live Longer Better in Herts campaign. Supporting older people, they have linked up with Judo coaches and are using the techniques of Judo to assist falls prevention, they are also educating people at risk of falling to 'land well'. This will reduce injury and prevent the cycle of post injury rest, physical inactivity, de-conditioning, loss of confidence, increased risk of falling.

It is a long webinar to sit through but there are some points of interest. If we are focussing on falls prevention it may stimulate more creative approaches.
