From our Friends at Taking Strides Calgary

A note from our friends at Taking Strides Calgary:

Taking Strides Calgary is an organization based on promoting physical literacy among children impacted by mental and physical disabilities. We currently engage over 100 student and community volunteers to take part in our weekly dryland and aquatics programming, with over 150 children actively taking part in our program. We offer both dryland and aquatics programs, to tackle physical literacy in multiple environments.

Our winter 2018 program registration has begun and we encourage you to take a look at the link and sign up!  : https://calgary.takingstrides.org/register/.

NEW: We have broken down our dryland times into fluid age groups to improve the effectiveness of the group games that we include in our sessions. This is designed to make the group games more inclusive, and provide us with greater variability in designing these games.
