Open Gym dates this week and next week!

Holiday sessions to shake the sillies out!

Skills on the Hill is proud to open our sensory gym spaces up to the public as well as current patients. We have gross motor equipment that is not commonly found in other kid gyms in the DMV such as swings, a climbing wall, inflatables, scooter boards, and crash pads.

Our floor is soft and our environment is safe for exploration, crashing, and occasional falls if they ever happen!

Open Gym is inclusive and for children with all abilities. Please note it is not considered therapy or is meant to substitute for therapy in any way. Our therapists are experts on child development and experts with kids!

What Can You Expect At Open Gym?

We will have equipment already set up and lots of opportunities to explore, learn, and trial activities at your child’s own pace.

Caregivers will be expected to assist with supporting their child in using the equipment in a safe manner.

Therapists will be available to provide tips, help, or even adjust the level of different tasks to facilitate successful independence as much as possible.

Improve Your Child’s Strength, Focus, Skills & Confidence!

We are excited to announce Skills on the Hill is launching a BRAND NEW program in December: ExerSHINE Kids Power Bootcamp. This program is an evidence-based thematic program that uses intense physical exercise to improve strength and self-regulation in children.

ExerSHINEkids Bootcamp Program is designed to promote core strengthening, motor planning and balance, building skills with accuracy and working on attention, focus and turn taking. The slower pace, additional support and smaller class size allows for more individual attention to focus on motor skill, social skill development and focus. Peers work together as a team to complete group physical challenges and obstacle courses, and of course have fun! We encourage children to find their inner strength and be proud of their accomplishments!

Weekly classes are highly structured, thematic, and adult-guided to practice focus, concentration, listening skills, peer cooperation and social skills. The program occurs once a week for 8-weeks and classes are 45 minutes in length.

Each class focuses on:
-strengthening exercises with focus on proper form
-self regulation strategies with explanation and practice
-group activities and challenges
-organic support for peer cooperative skills
-at home practice activities
-obstacle courses

Ages: 6-11 year olds

Time: 5:00-5:45pm

Dates: THURSDAYS 12/12-2/6; makeup session 2/13

Location: SOTH VA Office (suite 121)

Cost: $480 for 8 sessions/child

Instructor: Miss Kristen

8 weeks, 45/min/week
