Innovative Intensives
Personalized Treatment Plans that Work
Offered in a group setting, these innovative intensives pair children with therapists to focus on particular challenges in a comfortable and fun environment. Kids are not only able to focus on strengthening skills, but their relationships and ability to engage in a social setting. Intensives are “intense” as they meet several times a week, giving your child an opportunity to build skills more quickly.
Innovative Intensives
Bike Riding Intensive
The ability to ride a bicycle is an important milestone for children – enhancing self-confidence, participation in family activities and social relationships with other children. Because of the multi-layer neurological integration that occurs when riding a bicycle, children often excel in other developmental areas once they’ve mastered this skill. Through our four- to seven-day bike riding intensive, we focus on the integration and smooth functioning of several key developmental processing areas – visual-spatial processing, motor planning, motor activation and control.
