The aspiration of BIG FUN Therapy and Recreational Services is
to use the gymnastics environment as a tool to increase children’s
potential to function at higher levels in their everyday lives.
BIG FUN created a cutting edge method, which addresses sensory
processing, motor planning, and organizational behavior as the
means through which special needs children can feel competent
and develop a sense of self-esteem and achievement.
BIG FUN’s therapy services take traditional clinic-based
occupational and physical therapies and transform them into a
fun, dynamic, and invaluable experience for special needs children.
BIG FUN licensed therapists bring their extensive training and
science-based evaluative knowledge to the gymnastics environment
and endeavor to determine the causes for why the child’s
body functions how it does and how to employ the BIG FUN method
to address specific weaknesses. They are able to write detailed
evaluations and set goals to help their children implement the
range of motion, stability, and strength they acquire in the gym
into their daily lives.
BIG FUN’s recreational programs are geared towards helping
special needs children excel at gymnastics and other athletic
activities while introducing the social element of peer contact,
both with other special needs children and with typical children
in the gym. BIG FUN recreational instructors specialize in athletic
performance and movement and bring a variety of athletic and creative
resources to the floor, which enhance their training in the BIG
FUN method. Through their skill and passion, they help their children
to take their gymnastics learning to the playground and beyond.
