Adaptive Movement

Adaptive Movement

Atlantic Gymnastics strives to provide an accessible environment
for all people to reap the benefits of gymnastics and meaningful recreation.

For over 25 years, our Adaptive Gymnastics Program serves a variety of individuals who learn best in a one-on-one situation. These one-on-one classes allow instructors to adapt lesson plans to meet specific and individualized goals. These classes are also a great fit for students who require additional behavioral supports. Both AGTC locations offer state of the art gymnastics facilities, with full gymnastics apparatus and training equipment, including a loose foam pit, trampolines, soft and sturdy safety mats of various heights, shapes, and sizes, adjustable bars and balance beams, swingable rings and ropes, ladders, and many accessories to enhance the learning experience.  
 
We work with a diverse population of individuals of all ages, and achieve goals such as: gaining upper and lower body strength, core stability, confidence, body and spatial awareness, improved processing and motor planning capabilities, calming stimulation, coordination, increased patience, and adaptability to differing circumstances. 
We accept students with an array of social, emotional, and physical needs.
Please contact the program director to find out if our program is suitable for your child.
