Therapeutic Boxing Program
Occupational Therapy
Our Therapeutic Boxing Program, led by our Occupational Therapy Team, operates throughout the school term, spanning from week 1 to week 10. Tailored specifically for children and young people with additional needs or disabilities, our non-contact program is founded on evidence-based practices.
​
In our initial session, our Occupational Therapists conduct a thorough assessment to establish individual goals, requirements, and abilities. Working closely with both the child and their families, we set goals to enhance coordination, fitness, motor skills, and mental health and well-being.
​
Each 60-minute session is packed with a variety of activities, including non-contact boxing techniques, footwork and agility drills, coordination and balance exercises, and strength-building activities. Our Occupational Therapists also incorporate social and emotional elements such as interactive games, positive affirmations, and mindfulness practices.
Benefits of Therapeutic Boxing include:
