Rimbala at Mosaic with Daniel Rubinoff – 4 week Falls Prevention Program
10:00am – 11:00am
Toronto, ON M5M 2Z9
Rimbala is an innovative falls-prevention program for seniors that combines movement and music in a new way.
Rather than using pre-recorded music as an accompaniment to repetitive exercises, Rimbala classes are led by a professional musician who improvises the music in real time, in order to create a wide variety of musical speeds, textures, styles and moods.
Guided by the instructor, the seniors are encouraged to invent their own gestures and gently expand and refine their range of movements. The classes are designed to help seniors better cope with the numerous movement challenges that they face in their day-to-day lives.
Benefits of enrolling in Rimbala:
- Improved sense of balance
- Increase in regularity of gait which helps to prevent falls
- Improved communication between the body and the mind
- And much more!
