Ai Chi Ne
Course
#77109C
Ai Chi Ne will meet the
needs of therapists, aquatic fitness instructors, and Ai Chi
practitioners. It is a simple aquatic
balance program done in pairs. Ai Chi
Ne has been used extensively for all balance deficits (CP, Parkinson’s disease,
strokes), neurological and motor skill deficits, geriatrics, victims of abuse,
Developmentally Delayed, Attention Deficit Disorder and ADHA to adjust physical
and emotional balance. It is a safe,
effective program that any one can follow.
The program, like its’
foundation Ai Chi, was created by Jun Konno from Yokohama Japan and brought to
the US by Ruth Sova. The 74-minute Ai
Chi Ne correspondence video features four participants in the pool (with above
and under water footage) and in lecture
The Ai Chi Ne program will
expand your client base and your therapeutic tools. A laminate and audiocassette are also available.
Some of our clients don’t
have the balance skills to participate alone in an Ai Chi program. This program will give them the extra
support they need in order to benefit from Ai Chi. It is also excellent for
clients who need healthy touch (some children and geriatric populations) and
ADD/ADHD.
