All children deserve
an opportunity to participate in fun, safe exercise programs. Special Motions
provides these opportunities for children with a variety of developmental
delays and challenges.
Special Motions
focuses on the motor movements, strength, and core balance exercises that have
been proven effective in the development of special needs children.
The Special Motions program is designed so that all students experience
success while having fun and gaining self confidence. From our experience,
children with Autism, ADHD, and other learning challenges have been highly
successful through our program.
All types of movement can have positive effects on the brain. Research
is now exploring how and what types of
movement impact our brains. We can fine tune the
type of movement that is most effective for different individuals and different
situations.
Through Special Motions, students have the opportunity to meet sensory
needs. Using sensory integration strategies can improve
learning in all settings.
Classes provide these individuals with opportunities to engage in
physical movement and social interactions, thereby increasing their overall
physical fitness, social skills and self-esteem.
Movement is a major part of the answer to finding successful ways to
help children overcome challenges!
