In this episode of Honestly Aging by Friends Life Care VigR®, we explore an important part of vibrant aging: staying confident on your feet. Our guest, Judith Sachs, founder of Anyone Can Move, brings decades of experience as a dancer, movement educator, and certified instructor in Dance for Parkinson's, balance and gait work, and fall-recovery training.

Judith shares how movement became her life's mission and why she believes every body, at every age and ability, can learn to move with more ease, awareness, and joy. She explains who is most at risk for falling, the surprising science behind fear of falling, and the simple strategies that can improve balance at home and in everyday life.

Listeners will learn about: • How our center of gravity shifts as we age • Why weight-shifting is essential for safe movement • Practical ways to recover after a fall and advocate for yourself • How music supports brain-body coordination • The power of community and connection in building confidence

Judith also introduces the inclusive programs she leads through Anyone Can Move, including Dance for Parkinson's, balance and gait classes, close-contact mobility training for couples, and her newest offering, Bounce Back: Mastering the Art of Falling and Recovery.

Whether you want to feel steadier walking, reduce your risk of injury, or rediscover the joy of moving freely, this conversation offers inspiration and actionable tools you can start using today.
