Flashback Friday 005 Susan Bock Smith and Judy Bjornson: Becoming Fall-Proof

'You live as long as you dance'( Rudolph Nureyev) 'You got to just move. It doesn't matter how efficient your movements are, what matters is that you are moving.' (Susan Bock Smith) In this early Flashback Friday episode from Growing Older Living Younger 05, Susan Bock Smith and Judy Bjornson indicate that though balance, strength and flexibility may decline as we grow older, if you're willing to learn and adjust, you can protect your body from this risk of falling that increases with advancing age.  Adversities may limit our abilities but if we're willing to learn and adjust we can continue to do what we love. So they suggest you constantly challenge yourself, and never tell yourself that you're too old to do anything Susan earned a Bachelor of Education with a Major in Physical Education from McGill University and taught Elementary Physical  Education prior to raising her family.
