Judo Program for children with various physical disabilities

Marquito  with sensei David Tanimura

 

I want to tell you about a wonderful project. Judo program for people with disabilities! 

The purpose of the program is to facilitate Judo in a practical and functional learning environment. I have been working closely with Sensei  Brett Wolf and his team.  They provided support with so much love, solidarity, patience and above all much respect for human life. 

Actually my respect and admiration for this group of caring people who give their time and make a better world for our children! 

Training begins with socialization. This is a sensitizing and awareness activity. It improves the quality of life of people with intellectual disabilities by providing the opportunity to develop friendship, and gives one on one assistance to prepare them to participate actively in society. This is healthy and disciplined sport that creates space for friendly relations between people without and without intellectual disabilities. These friendships raise self-esteem, self-confidence and strengthen the social skills of all involved. They are mutually enriching. They are a great motivating factor for volunteering students. 

People with intellectual disabilities and other reading difficulties understand and have the ability to learn but need adaptations in the presentation of information. 

Feel free to contact Sensei Brett Wolf, he is the person to talk about this wonderful program.
