ALL KINDZ OF KIDZ
A PROGRAM FOR CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS
Fit Kidz Club has recently embarked on a new program initiative for children with special needs and their families. This specially-designed, low-ratio program for children with special needs and a caregiver is offered in the UNIQUE environment of the Fit Kidz Club--a safe, clean, fantastically fun, educational, children’s activity and fitness facility. Our facility could be likened to a therapeutic playground for children with special needs. ALL KINDZ OF KIDZ is a class designed especially for children with a variety of physical and intellectual challenges. This introductory course is for children approximately 2 to 7 years old. Join other children and their parent, caregiver or physical therapist for fun and exciting movement activities that encourage motor skills development and more. This course is NOT instructor led, but more of an “open gym” atmosphere in a controlled environment with limited enrollment. The course is designed for children with, but not limited to, Aspergers Syndrome, sensory integration, developmental delays, down syndrome, visually impaired, hearing impaired, and children on the high-functioning end of the autistic spectrum whose needs are described as mild to moderate.
Fit Kidz Club provides a rich sensory experience for children. It is our hope that the activities in which they will participate, will serve to open a window between the special needs child and the outside world. The objective is that as children spend time in the gym, they will increase their overall coordination, agility, stamina, endurance and strength while they also improve in areas of interpersonal relationships, planning, and ability to sequence. It is our belief that beneficial physical activities presented in ALL KINDZ OF KIDZ such as climbing, reaching, grasping, even falling are a valuable organic source that nourishes the brain with sensory input and also contributes to sensory integration. All of this leads to our most important program objectives—to see children grow in areas of self-esteem, competence, motivation, and organization. The skills they develop at Fit Kidz Club will help them with daily life in their classrooms, on playgrounds, and at home.
