Those with Developmental Disabilties can be taught many things in the pool. Our one on one instructors will teach
water adaptation, independence in the pool, swim strokes and swim fitness training. The pool, with its pressure and
sensation can teach one with certain disabilities much more than just swim training. Aquatics training has been cited
numerous times as a therapeutic activity for those with autism and PDD/NOS. Within the pool, one can learn symmetry
of their own body, application of force, muscular balance, coordination, perceptual motor skills as well as the
obvious multi-sensory influences of the water.
Our programs include:
- Water Adaptation
- Stroke Development
- Aqua Mechanics
