W14 Discussion: Professional Toolbox

 For this week I learned more about therapeutic coaching and looking back at last week's experience of training a person with Asperger syndrome in my sport and making the workout appropriate to him so he can enjoy working out has led me to try to learn more about coaching people with other disabilities and I am currently preparing workouts and planning workouts for people with disabilities to see how I do and gain experience on what I can do to help them and motivate them to keep their physical activity fun and part of their lives

W10 Discussion: Professional Toolbox

  This week I found it fascinating to experience what it would be like to have a disability when playing a sport and I learned a lot on how to communicate with people with disabilities and I also respected them more for pushing through their struggles and  not seeing their disabilities as a weakness but rather find a way to still be able to have fun, enjoy every moment and find a positive way to push  through their struggles

W08 Discussion: Professional Toolbox

  In this week's lesson, the thing I found most enlightening was learning how to better understand the needs of people with wheelchairs and how can I better include them in sports activities and make them accessible and even fun for them keeping in mind their needs and also communicate with them to better understand what can I do better to help.  


The one thing I will try to use shortly is to learn more about the needs of people with wheelchairs and see how can I include them in more sociable activities.

W07 Discussion: Professional Toolbox

  In this week's lesson, the thing I found most enlightening learning was how can we make our facilities even more accessible for people with different disabilities. In this case, we learned about deaf people and I loved how we can even make people with hearing loss disabilities feel more included by having people and coaches for example who can sign language and make them feel included.


The one thing I will try to use shortly is to learn more about other disabilities so that I can incorporate and learn how to make them feel more welcomed and included in my facilities

   In this week's lesson, the thing I found most enlightening learning was how simple things such as the example rock climbing can help build foundations to deal with bigger problems like depression, such as making goals, surrounding ourselves with people who support those goals, and lead us in the right way and how self-discipline and overcome little problems out of time can help our self-confidence with bigger problems. 


The one thing I will try to use shortly is to make more purposeful goals in my own life and as well pay attention to the little blessings I´m given everyday so I don´t fall into the negative mindsets.

E-portfolio inclusion/disabilities

 In this week's lesson, one thing I found most enlightening was learning how to use the people-first language and how is important to first get to know the person first and then bring the disability. I loved learning about how to create a better environment for everyone and how we can help promote inclusion in our own lives too.

This is one thing I will try to use in the near future and apply the techniques in people-first language in my next volunteer work or even social experiences with people with disabilities

E-portfolio inclusion/disabilities

In this week's lesson, one thing I found most enlightening is the importance of funds in recreation. Seeing how many recreations have helped people with disabilities be part of a community, feel happier, and feel okay with their disadvantages has touched my heart and I loved writing about it in the case study. 


For the practicum one of the skills I´ve used the most is being a good listener to help me understand what they go through, what are their struggles, and know how can I help to make their lives more meaningful and fulfilling as well as be a friend and open-minded. 

Having a brother with Asperger syndrome one thing I have learned is the creativity he had and how could I make our times meaningful by joining his creative world, one thing he´d love to do was play games as it helped him be part of something in a sense and by joining his videogames it made his days better as now he had someone to play and go to as well talk too that could understand his feelings and thoughts as I put in the time to walk and understood him in this road.
