Ice hockey adapted for special needs

We have been doing this since 2011, and we have participants of all ages and abilities.  Also it is FREE (which is pretty cool because any of us with kids playing hockey know it is an expensive sports). We just got started up a couple of weeks ago, but new people are always welcome.  We play at the ice rink at Veteran's Memorial Park in Ann Arbor on Sundays at 10:30 AM.  Come on by and watch, or talk with the coaches if you have any questions. Even if your person doesn't know how to skate they will help them learn!  The coaches are Dr. Jacqueline Kaufmann and Ms. Kim Gearns

The launch of the Special Abilities Program from the Chelsea ATA. 

Our initial offering includes one 30-minute class per week on Saturdays from 10:15 - 10:45 AM, with plans to expand the program based on attendance and the success of additional class times. We are dedicated to providing a supportive and enriching environment for your child's growth and development. 

Key Program Details: 

First Class: The inaugural class is scheduled for Saturday, January 6th. This introductory class is free of charge, giving you the opportunity to meet our team, ask questions in person, and experience an engaging introductory lesson. 

Class Schedule: Initially, one class per week will be offered. Depending on attendance and the feasibility for our students, we hope to add an extra class per week starting in February. 
Saturday 10:15-10:45 AM. 

Program Fee: The cost for the program is $50 per month per participant for one class per week. Once the additional class is introduced, the monthly fee will increase to $100.
