I wanted to provide some stretches that can be performed in the wheelchair. Please do what you can some of you may need assistance.

Even if you can only do a few, it is worth it!

This a more advanced flexibility and mobility video for students who are growing so fast. Students who undergo

growth spurts may notice muscle tightness when trying to move. Some of these exercises may need to be adjusted to be safe 

and fit your needs. Please do with an adult in your home before you try by yourself. Remember nothing has to be perfect

any stretching is good for you.
