“My wife found about this program and at first I was a little skeptical because I am a DIYer whenever possible. We decided to give it a go for our 12 year old boy. And wow, it was the best decision of the summer. Our boy has Trisomy 21 and wants to ride like his brothers, but he lacks the muscle tone and balance… he even walks with his head tilted. Before the program he had only ridden on a tag-a-long bike a couple of times. When I came to the class on Wednesday I was a little nervous because he didn’t appear to be doing as well as others. I even heard parents talking about when their child was there last year in the program. But the steps were in place and by the end of the hour he was riding his 2-wheeler with only minimal help. The staff were so helpful and encouraging. This system is brilliant and was just what our boy needed. By the end of the week he was confident and had all the skills to ride his 2-wheeler. The environment of the program was positive and focused. We have tried to practice almost every day since then for about 15-30 minutes. And here we are just less than 2 months later and he rides to his friends house completely on his own. We are even considering having him join the mountain bike team next year in the Elevate program. We are elated that our entire family can now bike together. Awesome program, awesome people!! Thank you so much.”
