Blackwater Gymnastics - SEND sessions

They offer sensory and development movement sessions for children and young people who have:

• movement and coordination difficulties
• learning difficulties

These sessions are run by qualified disability gymnastic instructors and an Occupational Therapist. They are designed to help develop sensory processing and regulation. Instructions are kept to a minimum and sessions follow the children's interests. This could include gently guiding them to roll, swing or jump. 

Blackwater Gymnastics also offer SEND gymnastic sessions in a safe, small environment. These small group sessions are for children and young people who:

• are diagnosed with SEND and have some body control
• have social, emotional or mental health difficulties and find it difficult being in a fast paced or noisy environment
• have no diagnosis but do not feel confident taking part in a larger group setting

Children develop their skills at their own pace and will lots of encouragement. An instructor supports small groups of two or three children.

They have a session dedicated for home educated children.
