In this sequel to our previous video, join Coach Dave and his new exercise buddy, Carter, a student with autism, as they embark on another empowering fitness journey. As they continue their fitness exploration, Coach Dave learns more about the students' abilities and preferences, ensuring a personalized and engaging exercise experience. With a focus on building a strong rapport and fostering a positive relationship with exercise, Coach Dave encourages student choice and provides a supportive environment to promote success and confidence. The video showcases evidence-based practices such as visual supports, modeling, technology aided instruction, and positive reinforcement, all contributing to an inclusive and effective learning process. The goal remains to introduce new exercises to the child, emphasizing low-intensity moves like "Yoga Downward Dog and "Posture Hip Extension" to create positive associations with physical activity. Witness Carter explore new exercises, taking important steps towards a healthier and happier lifestyle.
