Falling for no apparent reason: Any ideas?

I suffered from falling, having fallen 10 times in one year. I finally took the advice of a friend and went to a trainer. The first thing he did was to take a video of me walking , on his cell phone. Showed it to me and said why are you always looking down? I think that alone is a major problem. Your body will always fall in the direction your head is looking. Also said particular mussels are weak. After 10 visits doing the exercises he had me do I am like a new person. Have not fallen since. I have decided to continue going to him once a week until I feel strong again. I am 80 years old.

I fell just last night, but not in the direction my head was looking. I fell backward while looking forward.
