Teaching Adults How to Ride a Bicycle
What obstacles occur when teaching adults to ride a bicycle for the first time? How can instruction be made safe during a time of pandemic?
Tammy is an occupational therapist who teaches her clients how to ride, so that they can “fit in” and have a “typical” activity to do with their friends and family. Recently, she came up with the idea of offering her bicycle lessons to children and adults who don’t have impairments/ disabilities. She was surprised by the interest, both locally and afar. She provides one-on-one, small group, and on-line lessons to those 4-years old and up. Have questions? Contact her: tamsbooks4kids "at" gmail "dot" com. She loves to offer information and recommendations.
