June 18


Billy had his first Karate lesson today. I gave the instructors a heads up before class started and they were really good with him. Like many autistic kids, motor planning in general is difficult for him. He had a hard time getting his arms and legs to work together, but he sure tried! When it was time to pair up, the instructor paired up with him to do the exercises. Aside from getting distracted by the higher ranked students (who were working in the same room) and lagging behind after directions were given, he did really well. I am so proud of him.
