Overview

• Kaye Adams, 62, says she felt the world spin and lost her balance after a reformer Pilates class, initially fearing a stroke.
• She told her How to Be 60 podcast that doctors later diagnosed vertigo, which she described as a strange but common experience.
• Adams referenced dislodged inner‑ear “crystals” and balance exercises as part of management, reflecting a typical explanation for positional vertigo.
• The NHS describes vertigo as a symptom of movement or spinning often tied to inner‑ear problems, with gentle movement and short‑term medication sometimes used.
• She highlighted the incident on her podcast and Instagram, with reports also noting a separate hearing scare last year that was resolved by removing earwax.
