Music and Dance, Art and Craft and Swimming/Aquatic therapy

Due to reduced communication, autistic children need an emotional outlet. These therapies are initiated by teaching children to play an instrument like drums. Once the child develops an interest and become more accustomed to human contact, singing and dancing lessons are introduced. These therapies have helped many children gain a sense of fulfilment. Music and Dance therapy is the psychotherapeutic use of movement that furthers emotional and physical integration. Music and Dance therapy include activities like mirroring, improvisation, body rhymes and hand gestures. These exercises help in building self-confidence, enable the children to share thoughts and ideas through movement and encourage the kids to express their imagination.

In Art and Craft Arts we involve the use of a wide variety of activities involving making things with a child’s  own hands such as drawing and painting.

Swimming/Aquatic Therapy consists of an exercise program that is performed in the water. It is a beneficial form of therapy that is useful for children with Autism. We involve the use the physical properties of water to assist in children’s muscle strength, relaxation, balance, vestibular and exercise performance.
