The MOVESMART Approach

Psychological + Physical

The two modules work together to give participants complete capability:

MOVESMART: MINDSET

Practical psychological skills, attention training, decision-making tools and behavioural strategies that reduce fall-risk by improving judgement, awareness and personal control.

MOVESMART: MOVEIT

Functional, real-world movement training that improves balance, strength, agility, proprioception, flexibility and confidence during everyday tasks.

Together, they support safe decision-making and confident movement — indoors, outdoors, and around others.

Why it matters

Falls are not inevitable. Many are caused by surprise, distraction, fear, rushed decisions, poor awareness, or stress responses — not physical weakness alone.

MOVESMART helps people stay in control, make better decisions under pressure, and move with confidence and capability.
