Looking for a FREE program for your youth to get active all year round? Look no further!
MOVE by GoodLife Kids Program is a FREE physical activity and fitness program created to build physical and mental well-being as well as community and confidence for youth ages 12 -21 with autism and intellectual disabilities across Canada. Youth with autism and intellectual disabilities often face barriers to participation in physical activity and fitness programs: whether it be a higher cost, whether it’s a lack of support for individual needs, or the environment itself is inaccessible. MOVE was created to break down these barriers and cultivate a sense of belonging through the power of movement.
The MOVE Program is led in person and virtually by specially trained Coaches and Support Agents who utilize adaptive programming to tailor classes to the unique needs of each participant, ensuring a fun and inclusive experience.
A Typical Class Structure Includes:
10 minutes – Welcome, talk topic, and warm-up
40 minutes – 1-3 Exercise circuits with games and dance breaks in between
10 minutes – Cool down and goodbyes
