Exercise Connection Autism Workshop Packs
Equipment packs designed to coincide with functional strategies used to teach students with autism.
Designed with input from Adaptive PE Specialist David Geslak, these packs include everything instructors need to introduce students on the spectrum to fitness and motor skill development. With Geslak’s expertise and Gopher’s unique equipment, we have ensured the safest and most effective packs for adapting PE classes around the needs of autistic students and promoting motor development.
All equipment included in each pack is hand-picked to be friendly and non-intimidating. Bright Rainbow colors captivate students and hold their attention, while soft materials make handling equipment easy. Each item can be used in a wide variety of activities that improve range of motion, dexterity, and strength for students on the spectrum to live more active, healthful lives.
