EDUCATIONAL THERAPY
Re-education Therapy is understood to be the psycho-educational intervention oriented to students at any educational stage (Infant, Primary, Secondary or Training Cycles) who show some concrete difficulty in learning. Our therapeutic work focuses on those aspects that directly or indirectly influence educational learning:

• Socio-emotional (motivation, self-concept...)
•Cognitive (attention, memory, reasoning, planning...)
At first, the above aspects are evaluated, and a work plan is determined which allows, based on the student’s own abilities and to develop those abilities which are necessary and required, according to their chronological age.

Basketball is one of those sports that can be practiced from the earliest ages. It gives us better coordination, increases concentration and speed of meetings, develops agility, locomotor skills and endurance.
Basketball cares for and protects the cardiovascular system and improves muscular endurance. Therefore, this sport fosters the autonomy of children and helps them to feel part of a group, preparing them to take their place in society, as well as transmitting such important values as cooperation and companionship. It is a fun and dynamic sport that keeps children away from a sedentary lifestyle, provides them with self-confidence and also promotes good self-esteem.

During sessions, children can practice sports such as soccer, basketball, athletics, gymnastics, and tennis.

Children's multisport is an excellent option to promote well-rounded development in kids. Offering a varied and fun experience, it not only enhances their physical abilities but also strengthens their confidence, teamwork skills, and resilience in the face of challenges. Additionally, it encourages an active lifestyle that will benefit them throughout their lives.
