Resumo: The objective of the study was to evaluate the balance and risk of falls of active and sedentary women in the climacteric period. A total of 14 women, aged between 45 and 80 years, participated in the study. The Berg’s Balance Scale and the Tinetti Index were used. The results showed that the static and dynamic balance is greater and the risk of falls is lower for physical activity practitioners. Conclude that the practice of physical activity tends to reduce the risk of falls, improves balance and functional aptitude, bringing great health benefits.Keywords: Menopause; Physical Activity; Balance; Climacteric.

Participaron del estudio 14 mujeres, con edades entre 45 y 80 años. Se utilizó la Escala de Equilibrio de Berg y el Índice de Tinetti. Los resultados mostraron que el equilibrio estático y dinámico es mayor y el riesgo de caídas es menor para los practicantes de actividad física. Concluimos que la práctica de actividad física tiende a reducir el riesgo de caídas, mejora el equilibrio y la aptitud funcional, aportando grandes beneficios para la salud. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar o equilíbrio e o risco de quedas de mulheres ativas e sedentárias no climatério.
