🧩 Adaptive Sports Coach in Dubai
I run adaptive and therapeutic sports sessions for children and adults from age 3.
I work with:
- People with developmental differences and neurotypical children and adults
- A range of conditions (including autism, intellectual disabilities, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, visual and hearing impairments)
Coaching since 2011. I have specialist equipment for individuals who cannot move independently but can stand with support.
🏃♀️ Session Formats
- Therapeutic sport (developing physical and social skills)
- Adaptive sport (competition preparation: Paralympic disciplines, Special Olympics)
- General physical development for neurotypical children (coordination, balance, confidence, love of sport)
❓ Why Sport Matters for Children
Regular sessions help achieve key rehabilitation and developmental goals:
- Physical development: coordination, balance, endurance
- Learning skills: attention, goal-setting, following instructions, spatial awareness
- Self-regulation and socialisation: self-confidence, independence, communication, reduced anxiety
