Adaptive Gymnastics
Health
Adaptive Gymnastics is an opportunity to get involved with children who have a wide range of disabilities. The program is based in a gymnastics gym, where volunteers and kids interact through a one-to-one ratio within the larger group. The classes consist of a stretching exercise at the beginning that is lead by the head of the program, completing an obstacle course that aims to help the kids develop new skills such as jumping, balancing, and following directions, and the classes finish with free time where the kids get to choose what they want to do, such as playing in the foam pit or on the trampolines! There are two sessions, both running for an hour on Sundays mornings from 10:00-11:00 and 11:15-12:15. Emails are sent out every week for volunteers to sign up on a first-come, first-serve basis and a carpool will be organized to transport volunteers to the gym. Since the gym is approximately 40 minutes away from Ann Arbor, the total time commitment is from 9 a.m. to 1:00 p.m on Sundays. Volunteers are asked to stay for both classes unless otherwise specified. No previous gymnastics skills are necessary; just a smile and lots of excitement to hang out with these awesome kiddos!
