WIAS Visiting Researcher’s Seminar:
Professor MORALES AZNAR, José “Application of an adapted judo program in people with ASD” (4/10)
Abstract
Judo practice has certain characteristics that can contribute to the educational process of children and young people. These advantages also have a great deal of potential in the field of special needs education.
It has been shown that physical exercise and participation in sports programs can substantially improve the lives of people with ASD. More specifically, research has shown that judo practice can contribute to the improvement of psychosocial skills, motor skills and physical fitness as it relates to health.
The adaptation of judo programs for populations with ASD must be undertaken following certain guidelines, which should be based on prior knowledge of the characteristics of the population with ASD to apply simple didactic adaptations that help ensure the success of the process.
