To assess static and dynamic Balance, Sharpend Romberg test and time up and go test and to assess Fear of Falling the Fear of Falling questionnaire were used. Exercises were performed for 8 weeks, three sessions per week and each session for 60 minutes by experimental group, while the control group did not do any exercise. Analysis of covariance and paired t-test were used to analyze the data Results: The results of this study showed that a period of Fall Prof Training significantly increased static (P=0. 01) and dynamic Balance (P=0. 01) and a significant decrease in Fear of Falling (P=0. 01) In the experimental group compared to the control group.
