Resource Person: Ms. Beryl Kelsey, an International Halliwick Association lecturer, has volunteered herself to train the members.

Course description: The aim of the course is to train the instructors to have knowledge of and practice a concept of teaching of all ages with special needs to be as competent and independent as possible in water.  Many people with disabilities though there would love to swim but there are not adequate trainers who could train them, so they are deprived from enjoying the swimming,  Mobility India in collaboration with Halliwick Association have decided to train people who would in turn train people with special needs of all ages to learn swimming. 

Participants: 13 participants attended the workshop; they were Orthotists and Prosthetists, Physiotherapist, occupational therapist, sports teachers, physical trainer and educators.
We would be very happy to share the skill and knowledge of training the members in Hydrotherapy with anyone who is interested to help persons with disabilities in the water; this includes lay people such as family members as well as professional people.
We would like to give our special thanks to the management of Jyothy School for supporting us with the logistics to achieve our goal etc… those who are interested in next batch can contact Academic Coordinator: academic@mobility-india.org or telephone: 080- 26492222 – Ext: 125/113
