When people of different abilities and backgrounds come together, they can develop positive perceptions, break down barriers, and banish stereotypes. Many modifications are often simple and inexpensive. You may only have to move an activity to an accessible room with a doorway that is wide enough for a wheelchair. Or, you can show an individual how to perform an exercise differently or with adaptive equipment. You can also move equipment along the paths that already exist between equipment in your gym.
Adaptive equipment is available for most activities, and prices vary.
Together with the individual with a disability, decide what is needed. For more ideas and assistance, contact the professional organizations and agencies listed at the end of this brochure. That makes sense. I like believing I can help people feel better and healthier. Use your imagination and professional experience and work together with the individual to design a program.
