I'm a writer, working on an article for Kids On Wheels, a magazine for wheelchair-using kids. I'm doing a story on martial arts for wheeling kids. I have found some programs for people with disabilities, but they are mostly for ambulatory people - our focus is entirely on wheelers. I'm looking for MA instructors and/or students who use wheelchairs. If anyone knows of any, or could point me in a direction to try, I'd be most appreciative. They should be in the US or Canada, where most of our readers live. Thanks so much in advance for any help! Laura Kaminker
A place to start Here's a neat site to check out: www.defenseability.com Their video library www.defenseability.com/video.htm And a specific set of videos www.defenseability.com/IDSAVS1.htm Might be worth the time to contact them.... I don't know them personally but they are an affilliate of the ICHF (Combat Hapkido) with which I have had stellar success in their programs and support.
