VOLT FITNESSSM is proud to announce that we have paired with P.L.E.A.S.E Occupational Therapy Services to create a new and therapeutic experience, using the interactive VOLT FITNESSSM Circuit for the families of children with special needs.
The VOLT FITNESSSM Circuit combines video games and fitness equipment to deliver a proven fun and effective workout for children with varying abilities and fitness levels.
Your child will benefit from our specialized fitness equipment, which provides a dual sensory experience and physical outlet as well as boosting self-esteem and confidence by building your child’s physical fitness level. Therapeutic goals of increased strength, motor planning and motor coordination are achieved in a non-traditional setting.
In addition to physical goals, we have developed a unique social skills component that utilizes typical, similarly aged peers to interact and serve as role models. VOLT FITNESSSM and P.L.E.A.S.E have implemented a mentoring program to enhance your child’s experience. Our mentors consist of pre-qualified local high school students.
The program is for ages 7-21.
