Benefits of Sports

The co-founders of “Break it Down” Total Sports currently work with children with special needs and have realized that there are very few programs that focus on teaching sport skills to children who learn at a slow pace than their typical peers.  We know that engaging in sport’s activities enhances children’s overall well-being and confidence and we would like these same opportunities for children who learn a little differently.
