https://www.mariettamehanni.com/education/ Enable is a disability education and advocacy platform. Our primary goal is to educate about the importance of inclusion of people with a disability in all aspects of life - this includes in our fitness centres - creating both employment and recreation opportunities as well as social inclusion. We aim to create inclusive communities - places that are accessible where all people with or without a disability are included - respected and celebrated. If you are passionate about improving the health and well being for your community - this workshop will empower you with the skills and strategies to confidently deliver group exercise programs for people with intellectual disabilities. Everyone deserves the opportunity to exercise.

Terminology: what to and what not to say - when it comes to the language of disability. How to deliver fitness programs for people with intellectual disability and ASD for both children and adults in reference to class size - helpers - carers - music volume - appropriate exercises - how to plan and have back up plans. Employment: how can we make our fitness centres more inclusive in respect to patrons and including staff with disabilities.
