We have been running some very successful yoga classes and strengthening/coordination classes for kids with and without special needs that your group may be interested in. They are lively classes that the kids have a lot of fun in at a very reasonable cost. I am currently in the process of adding additional class times so anyone can visit our website at kidstherapy.biz for the info on any new classes. Thanks!
