It is important for everyone, particularly older people who are at risk of falls, to exercise regularly.

Our PSI Instructor, Sharon, put together some videos so you can take part in some gentle exercise classes from home. All you need for most of them is a chair with a bit of space around it.

1. Start with a warm up
