Adaptive Karate can be useful in building your confidence. Kicking the Spectrum offers flexible martial arts classes for Groups of 2 on up past 11. That means you could even get a few friends together and they will do a private group class just for you guys. How fun would that be? Always fun to do a cool activity with friends. Additionally, Kicking the Spectrum caters to your schedule and your student’s needs. Just in case Mom is reading.

Oh My, that just gave me a brilliant idea. Suppose you do Adaptive Karate at your Birthday Party? Definitely something different. I like things different. Of course, some of you may prefer more of a one on one situation. Totally fine. Private Lessons are available. Again, they will work with your schedule and tailor it to your personal needs.

Let’s talk about the group classes they already have in line. Surely you enjoy meeting new people as much as I do? Not sure which class is right for you. For the purpose of finding the right placement Kicking the Spectrum allows a free trial class. You can see how you feel about the whole thing at that time. Another positive point to make is that a behavior therapist co-teaches each class. Occasionally you might feel a little jittery or scared so they can help you manage those emotions. It sounds to me that adaptive karate is worth a try. It’s no wonder why everyone was Kung Fu fighting.

Swim Jim-Upper East Side

adaptive swimming swim jim special needs nyc

Adaptive Swimming can actually save your Special Needs child’s life. “Every child should know how to swim,” says Swim Jim and for this reason, they start lessons with babies. Although that may sound a little young, think about how fast babies can crawl. To illustrate how quickly situations can turn scary think about this scenario. Suppose you are at a backyard pool party. Everyone is having a fun time talking and laughing. Suddenly without anyone noticing a baby crawls towards the pool and falls in the water. You can’t jump in and save the baby if you don’t know how to swim. In this case, knowing how to swim not only benefits the baby but also yourself. If you haven’t taken an adaptive swimming class because you are afraid of the water this season is the time to take action.

Together with Swim Jim, you will gain confidence in and around the water. With a very low student to teacher ratio students of all abilities can benefit from these lessons. In spite of it being too cold outside their pool is indoor and heated. As a result, swim instruction is given all year long. Tell Aeriel Hello and Dive right in below.
