Adaptive Classes

  • Sensory Playground Gymnastics Program

    Ages 3-10

    This gymnastics program is specialized for children with learning and sensory disabilities. Gymnastics provides near full body input –giving your child the ability to move in all planes (even upside down) allowing additional sources of input. Our adaptive program is structured to provide your child with both proprioceptive and vestibular input. Students will have the option to work on many apparatuses in the gym as they would like: rings, bars, beams, tumble track, floor and vault. We will also have a variety of sensory toys and games for your child to enjoy. A parent, guardian or other responsible adult is required to attend and assist the student at no fee. Only registered students are allowed to participate in the class.
