What our members are saying
I was delighted with the breadth of classes offered, the instruction was really good, I could do it at home, and I could do it at my convenience.
I was ultimately able to do 45 minutes of moderate cardio, which certainly had never before been possible.
I think having confidence in my own balance helps me feel more confident in the world - just going out and walking, and not worrying about falling.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about Bold.
What is Bold?
Bold’s online fall prevention program includes weekly on-demand guided exercise classes that specifically focus on increasing strength and balance. The classes are led by expert trainers that specialize in adapting exercises for healthy aging. The classes include a variety of functional fitness exercises, tai chi, and mobility movements.
How does the program work?
When signing up for Bold, you will answer a few questions, which allows Bold to create a personalized program tailored to your needs and based on your current exercise preferences, health conditions, and goals. As you take your exercise classes, which may range from 5 to 40+ minutes, depending on your program, you will focus on movements designed to improve balance, strength, and mobility. You will have the opportunity to provide feedback after every class to help ensure the exercises are at the right intensity and pace.
As a member, you’ll also receive support from Bold to help you set goals and build a sustainable routine, as well as any technical support you may need around accessing the program, so that by the end of your first program, you will feel stronger, more balanced, healthier, and at lower risk of falls.
Is there a cost?
As a member of Optum California ACO, Bold is available at no cost to you.
What do I need to participate in Bold?
You will need internet access to be able to view the classes on Bold’s online platform (website). You can access Bold through any internet-connected device, including a mobile phone, by going to Bold’s website on your internet browser. There is no equipment required to participate in. We do recommend you have a sturdy chair nearby (without wheels) to use when instructed during class.
What if I already exercise?
That’s great! Bold is a great addition to any current exercise routine. Bold’s classes will provide you with a unique set of movements that train your brain and body in an effort to improve your balance and reduce fall risk.
What if I am in physical therapy?
Many members do Bold’s fall prevention program while also in physical therapy. If you have concerns, we recommend you consult with your physical therapist and/or primary care physician to ensure balance training exercises are safe to do during this time.
