Special Needs Private Lessons Outreach

Special Needs
AcroSports welcomes children of all abilities in our programs. Regular session classes, camps, and birthday parties can all accommodate special needs, and private lessons can also be arranged for students seeking one-on-one attention. The Special Needs Program is designed to address the needs of children with the following:

Autistic Spectrum Disorders
Sensory Integration Dysfunction
Coordination Difficulties
ADHD/ADD

If your child has difficulty with:

Balance, coordination or body integration
Sensory processing/integration or self regulation
Ease and smoothness of movement
Engaging in whole body movement
Learning new motor skills
Being able to function in a large group setting

AcroSports can help!
The special needs program encompasses the following:

Small group size for more individualized instruction and attention
Coaches knowledgeable about sensorimotor needs
Occupational Therapy intake and consultation to tailor the class to your child's particular needs
Groupings of children of similar ages with similar areas of need to maximize developmental and social opportunities

Contact Dorrie Huntington or Christine Bagnall for more information.

Private Lesson Policies

Private lessons must involve a series of at least 3 visits with an instructor, unless the coach has agreed in advance to meeting with a student for fewer times (in which case the "One-Time Private Lesson" fees are applied).
All private lesson students must have current emergency contact information on file in the office.
AcroSports has a 24-Hour Cancellation Policy for private lessons. For any cancellations made less than 24-hours in advance of a scheduled private lesson, the full price of the lesson will be charged.
